Antique knight's armor, magnificent ceiling paintings, important works of art - if that interests you, then visit the Hohenzollern Castle in Sigmaringen. The second largest city palace in Germany is perched on a rock high above the Danube. The castle was first mentioned in the chronicle of the Petershausen monastery in 1077. The oldest parts are hidden under the major new buildings and renovations of the 17th and 19th centuries.
Events and exhibitions take place regularly. It's worth checking the event calendar. The castle is open to visitors every day from March to December. Entry to the castle (including a guided tour) and the weapons hall costs 12.50 euros. If you want to get a more detailed picture, click on this link: hohenzollern-schloss.de.
