Attraction Fortress Schlosskopf

Breitenwang

High above Reutte, on the Schlosskopf

Description

In 1703, the reconquest of Ehrenberg started from the castle head. But it was not until 1733 that work began on the construction of the fortress, which was completed in 1741 according to the latest military findings. Only 41 years were granted to this mighty fortress, during which it never achieved any significance, until it was abandoned in 1782 like all the other buildings and slowly fell into disrepair.

The imposing remains still give a glimpse of the fortress that was considered impregnable in its time. The new theme trail at the castle head, for example, makes all the historical fortress elements accessible, which are explained by information boards, and makes the fortress in the Ehrenberg Castle World experienceable for people with limited mobility. The difference in altitude from the Ehrenberger Klause can be overcome comfortably and also barrier-free with the two inclined lifts Ehrenberg Liner and Top-Liner.
