Die Burgruinen Ober- und Unterfalkenstein liegen bei Beuron-Thiergarten.

Die Burg Oberfalkenstein wurde erst im 16. Jahrhundert errichtet und ist heute dank ehrenamtlichen Engagements eine der besterhaltenen im Naturpark Obere Donau.

Im Unterschied zu Unterfalkenstein ist sie für Besucher frei zugänglich.
