Do put this on your must see list. This 800 year old castle is like stepping into a movie. As you round the bend walking down to the castle from the parking lot, standing in the middle of nowhere, the castle comes into view and does not disappoint. Absolutely outstanding both inside and out! It is still family owned but... More

This castle was a lot of fun to go through and see and understand the history and evolution of the castle and the family who owns it. The rooms were fun to see as was the treasury in the basement. The site is a bit out of the way, but it's worth it. I wish there was more to explore... More

Have been to this castle several times now and like to come back. Instead of parking at the near by parking lot I prefer the walk from the Mosel valley the town is called Moselkern to the castle. The walk will take you through the pictures Elz valley and after about a 50 minutes walk through the forest you will... More

This is a wonderful castle worth a day trip! I took the train to the Müden (Mosel) stop and walked about 5km to the castle. I highly recommend this beautiful walk unless you have any issues with up hill walking. I will include photos that can help guide other travelers. Last and MOST IMPORTANTLY I took a small detour near... More

Let your GPS guide you but also pay attention to the roadside signs because they will help you find this tucked-away castle. We did not take the shuttle from the parking lot but instead made the walk; it was relatively easy and we walked back too. I like that this castle is truly medieval with only minor, upkeep repair made... More

Use a GPS to find this place. Plan to pay for parking and for the shuttle bus (or walk). Plan to pay a lot more to see this castle than you pay for other castles in the area. We wanted more information about the castle history, the family, the stories...instead, we got to view some beautiful items and displays, to... More

This was my second visit - was there 20 years ago in the summer. The countryside was of course not near as pretty in April as in the summer but the castle does not disappoint and it wasn't near as crowded. The walk was a challenge since it was muddy and slippery so it took us almost an hour from... More

We dutifully followed the signs and even asked a local lady. We ended up in a field in the middle of nowhere, where we had to pay 2Euro to park the car. There were signs stating that the castle was 1,4 km (or something like that) following a path in the woods (no sign for a shuttle bus from that... More

If you have only time to visit one castle in this part of Germany, this is it. All others have been damaged and restored over the ages, but not this one.
