In the 15th century, the 130 metre high Frienstein was home to a castle keep of the Berken von der Duba family; later owners were the Wettin family. But robber barons also took up residence here. This is why the Frienstein is still known today as the Vorderes Raubschloss. Directly on the Frienstein is a fissure and layered joint cave that can only be reached via a narrow ledge: the Idagrotte.
