The Ruin

Das sind die Reste der "Engelburg" in Mönchfeld. Zur Geschichte dieser Burg verweise ich auf das nachstehende Bild. Von hier hat man eine herrliche Aussicht auf Mühlhausen, Hofen und Münster.
These are the leftovers of the castle named "Engelburg" in Moenchfeld. The castle has an interesting history. This place is a wonderful lookout too.

It's a interesting story; too the last text about worldwar 2!

Not much is left of Engelburg, but such castles are placed high, to be able to overview the lower parts. I noticed Nackar had a ferry in 1300...

These "ruins" always fascinate me because they raise so many more questions than they answer. Must have been a terrific spot to watch over the area if it's a wonderful lookout now.
