      Fantastically beautiful castle with a museum and wonderful gardens, roses ... Lavender, everything was in full bloom today.
      There is a treasure hunt for children.

        The most beautiful is on Sooneck at the time of the rose bloom, when several rose bushes transform the castle in Dornröschen's castle.
