This 13th century castle, perched on the cliffs overlooking Mariastein, seems to come straight out of a fairytale.

The building houses a youth hostel. It's a wonderful place to stay just 15 kilometers from the town of Basel.

Rotberg Castle is located on the recently signposted Castle Magic Route 114 and is worth every visit, especially for an overnight stay. Although the castle is a Swiss youth hostel, it can also be rented privately: for weddings, anniversaries, etc. The entire castle is also available with or without catering.

It is closed during the winter months. The shared rooms have been recently renovated. For only two or a few people, it is best to contact the castle directly; the tower room for two, for example, is not listed online.
