Burg Falkenstein

A few kilometers above the Selke River's emergence from the Harz, high above the valley, rises Burg Falkenstein. Here in the 13th C. Eike von Repgow wrote the "Sachsenspiegel," the oldest German code of laws.

There is a museum in Burg Falkenstein depicting the history of hunting (exhibition of hunting weapons ranging from the Middle Ages to the present day).
