In the novel it is the family seat of the Tiefenbachs in the Siegerland. Nowadays, remains of this high medieval castle can still be found.<\/p><p>The castle was situated on a hill in the village of Dreis\/Tiefenbach, above the river Sieg. It consisted of a main castle, outer bailey, keep and it is assumed that it can be traced back to a former Frankish rampart castle complex.<\/p><p>It is also assumed that Ore Castle (Alte Burg) in Dreis\/Tiefenbach is a pre-dynastic tower castle from around the year 1000. This kind of castles was relatively small in comparison to the common knight\u2019s castles. But it was situated ideally to control the old Westphalian trade route.<\/p><p>The Knights of the Daube von Seelbach-Lohe family were living in this region. This family is among the oldest dynasties in the Siegerland. The Daube von Seelbach-Lohe knights gave up their knighthood in 1461 to become feudal lords of the Counts of Nassau. Later they fell completely into debt and lost their castle.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-777e44ca myshadow2
