VR glasses compatible (e.g. Quest 3)
If you visit the Neu-Leonroth castle ruins at the right time - spring in sunny, warm weather - you can be surprised by this romantic and enchanted place. Almost like a fairytale, there is thick ivy growing up all the walls, narrow, open forest paths lead through the complex, the forest floor is overgrown with green, ferns rise up between them. The ruins are freely accessible without restrictions.
Small information about the structure of the building is provided in some corners of the virtual tour (as usual, best done on a PC and with headphones or, even better, with VR glasses). For more information about the history and construction, see the web links below. The tour covers almost every area. Smaller improvements such as a map will follow in the future.
Help for the tour
The virtual tour is best experienced in full screen (double click on the image or click on the button at the bottom right), on a large PC monitor with headphones or speakers. Simple reconstructions of the former building structure become visible under the mouse cursor (or when touching the touchscreen). Small details are pointed out using information symbols.
At the top right, an orientation plan and/or a map can be activated, at the right edge the music can be set to mute, a compass can be hidden or shown and switched to English.
If you activate the home button at the top of the screen, you get to the aerial photo/overview and back again.
The tour, like all the others, can be experienced with VR glasses such as a Quest 3. Without additional software – simply enter the URL of this page in the browser of the glasses, activate the VR button that is then visible there – done.
