Looks like something out of a fairy tale, but it's true: Braunfels Castle welcomes its guests from afar from the top of a rock. Family-owned for 800 years, the castle is now a living cultural monument, rich in art treasures and still inhabited by the family today. Open year-round and flexible, we offer a wide range of guided tours and sightseeing options that appeal to different age groups and interests. So how about a fairytale excursion?

We emerged from the high forest into the light and the plateau opened up before us with a clear view of the gem of Braunfels Castle. We approached full of curiosity and joyful anticipation!
