Despite the still impressive size, the ruins of Metternich Castle are only a shadow of the former building. After the castle had decayed for many years, it came into private ownership in the early 1960s. Since then it has been partially renovated and can be visited today. There is also a restaurant in the castle. From the castle walls you have a wonderful view of the Moselle valley.

Opening hours:
daily from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Admission prices:
Adults 2.50 euros
Children from seven years old 1 euro
