Guided Story
Can you feel the whispers of history all around you? Imagine nobles and servants bustling through these halls in the 16th century when the castle was newly built. Look up at the intricate Renaissance decorations, telling tales of power and elegance. Behind you, the picturesque landscape stretches out, once surrounded by dense forests. Did you know that beneath these ancient walls lie the remains of a medieval water castle? Perhaps even secret tunnels that once served as escape routes. A short walk southeast will lead you to the Kleinbauernmuseum Reitzendorf, where you can learn more about rural life in those days. Let yourself be transported back to a time long past, still very much alive in the stones of this castle.
