The Heiligenberg is atop the mountain across the river from the castle.  In about an hour and a half you can walk all the way to the top, conquering steep inclines the entire way, or you can be a wimp and drive up.  The Celts built a watchtower here and there was also a monastery and an ampitheater.

See? It's really high up!
