Well worth a visit in any case. Well maintained. With over 300 years of history. Rebuilt in its current form from 1705 after being destroyed in the Thirty Years' War. In 1961 the castle was bought by the city of Erlangen and extensively renovated. It was sold privately in 2004 to save money, but with the condition that it be opened to the public. The new owner completely renovated the castle and the complex by 2013.

Atzelsberg Castle offers a very well-kept outdoor area, next door there is an inn with a beautiful beer garden for a long break.

a stop in the nearby beer garden is always worthwhile.

Despite the hillside location, the main building of the castle is surrounded by a moat several meters deep. On the south, east and half on the west side, this was dug deep into the rock of the southern plateau. On the sloping north and north-west side, on the other hand, it is formed by an artificially raised wall several meters wide and high. The moat was used for defense and was once filled with water. A small inflow still flows today as a brook in the western bottom of the trench. Filling up an artificial wall in order to create a moat is seldom found in the construction of water castles.

It's worth cycling up here - and the food on our last visit was very good too.

A short walk through Atzelsberg with its castle and orchards can be concluded in the very beautiful beer garden.
