Rauenstein is romantically surrounded by densely wooded mountains. The castle ruins and church high above the village are considered to be its origin and landmark. The New Rauenstein Castle with its collections of Rauenstein porcelain and turtle dolls is well worth a visit. The "Zinselhöhle" cave in the neighboring village of Meschenbach is also worth a visit. Other leisure activities and beautiful hiking routes complete the picture for guests.
