    The old moated castle is now only a ruin, but still worth seeing. It is located right next to the restored moated castle.

      Visit the moated castle individually or in a group. The floating walkway also makes this ruin accessible for less mobile visitors. In the visitor centre you can learn all about the history of the knights and damsels who used to live there.

        Dive into the past at the former princely estate of Pietersheim (76 ha!) with the eye-catcher being the 12th-century Water Castle. In the visitor's reception you will learn all about the glorious history of the domain. For the little ones there is great fun at the petting zoo with playground and the gnome path.
