Castle Pottenstein which towers over the town, is also worth seeing.
The castle dates from the 11th century, when it served as a fortress
against the Hungarians and other Slavic attackers. The present
appearance resembles that of the 16th century. The castle is a private
residence but a small part is open to the public.

The castle is reached via a trail and 365 stairs that start directly behind
the church in Pottenstein. Opening hours are from May to October
 from Tuesday to Sunday from 10 am to 7 pm; in April on weekend f
rom 11 am to 5 pm. Admission is €4,50.
