Please note! The chic château can only be visited by appointment. Events, catering, and festivals are also held here. Every year, a charming medieval market takes place at Wyher Castle. There is a large free parking lot behind the castle.

Willisau is a charming little town with a historic flair and always worth a visit. A stop at the Amrein Café is worthwhile, as this is where the famous Willisauer Ringli was originally made - a sweet cult pastry with a long tradition.
