Perched at the highest point in town, a steep walk up from St-Marien-Kirche or the Marktplatz, is the massive Landgrave Castle, built between 1248 and 1300. It offers panoramic views of bucolic hills, jumbled Marburg rooftops and the Schlosspark , the amphitheatre of which hosts concerts and open-air films. The museum inside the castle has exhibits on cultural history from prehistoric to modern times.
