The remains of the castle can be visited

Based on existing finds, a first castle is assumed to have existed in the early 11th century, possibly built of wood. Later, massive stone walls were erected there. In 1204, a "Luitfrid de Grassowe" first appears in a document, referring to the noble family of Grasser who named themselves after Grossau.
