🏰 Castle of the Dukes of Lorraine (Château des Ducs de Lorraine, Sierck-les-Bains) A mighty hilltop castle dating back to the 11th century – the residence of the Dukes of Lorraine for centuries. Situated high above the Moselle River, the castle offers not only impressive fortifications but also changing exhibitions, guided tours, and a magnificent panorama. Tip: Be sure to climb the towers – the view over the Moselle Valley and the town of Sierck-les-Bains is a real highlight, especially at sunset. Ideal for history buffs and photography enthusiasts.

🏰 Château de Malbrouck (Manderen-Ritzing) A magnificent 15th-century hilltop castle, once the first settlement of Marlborough ("Malbrouck") in 1705. Today, it has been lovingly restored (1991–1998) and is home to changing exhibitions, festivals, and medieval events. Tip: Combine your visit with a walk around the castle—take time to admire the towers, exhibitions, and seasonal events. Ideal for families, history buffs, and culture enthusiasts!

A fantastic fortress with lots to explore and a fantastic view of the surrounding area. There's a small souvenir shop at the entrance and exit, where you can also buy drinks. The site map is available in German, French, or English. There are also events taking place on the grounds, and apparently there's also an escape room adventure (which you can book). In the middle of the fortress ruins, there's a huge lawn with benches where you can have a picnic with a great view, provided you bring some snacks.

Berg Castle, built on a hill above the town of Nennig, consists of two connected former moated castles. The lower castle is privately owned and is gradually falling into disrepair, while the upper castle, converted into a palace during the Renaissance, houses a hotel, a restaurant, and a casino. The upper castle, incidentally, was almost completely destroyed in World War II, rebuilt by the Saarland in the 1950s, and used as a school camp for about 30 years. It was only converted into a hotel in the late 1980s. Details about the history online: https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schloss_Berg_(Saarland)

Very beautiful castle with sometimes exciting exhibitions and events. At an event organized by the University of Metz, I was able to experience an interesting tour there with a great dinner in the large hall. The meal was accompanied by a lute ensemble.

The Schengen Castle.

An impressive sight directly on the Moselle.

A nice castle, but you shouldn't expect to find a really beautiful old castle inside. It's more intended for exhibitions. When we were there at Pentecost, there was an exhibition on the Olympic Games. We went there expecting to find a medieval castle, so we were a little disappointed. Nevertheless, the Olympic exhibition was still somewhat interesting for the children.
