    Tips

    September 26, 2017

    Schloss Kapfenburg is located on a sprawling ridge above the village of Lauchheim. The strategic location gave the castle, which existed in front of the castle, its name very early (\ "Kapfen \" means view). Over the centuries, the complex was dominated by the architectural style of the Teutonic Order. Constant alterations and additions allowed the castle to grow and become a large, representative, impressive palace complex.

    The ascent is on foot or by bike sweaty, but quite to create. At the end you will be compensated with a great view and a very nice facility.

      The climb is worth it - how quickly is the effort at the sight and the view forgotten!

        Very attractive complex situated on a hill. The palace complex can only be viewed from the outside or from the inner courtyards.
