A second period of prosperity followed during the late Gothic period when it was owned by the Frauenberg knights of Haag: fragments of frescoes in the former guard-room and a manuscript of the Nibelungenlied, the "Prunner Codex" (today in the Bavarian State Library in Munich) date from this time.

Life in the castle is illustrated by rooms such as the women's chamber and the kitchen. In 1827 King Ludwig I of Bavaria ordered the castle to be preserved as a historic monument, thus rescuing it from imminent decay.

The following rooms are available for your events:
