Falkenstein Castle dates back to a small castle from the 12th century. In 1267, the castle is mentioned as being in the possession of Johannes von Valkinstein. At the end of the 14th century, the castle was destroyed and rebuilt in 1832 under the von Trützschler family. In 1945, the owners were dispossessed and expelled by the communists.
