The Upper Castle, Middle Castle and Lower Castle (Baroque Castle) surround the Castle Park. In particular, the baroque castle from the 18th century with its pastel-colored facade and the high hipped roof draws the eye. The other two much older castle complexes from the 12th and 16th centuries are in need of renovation despite their valuable historical building structure. The park stretches up the slope, where there is another castle-like building, the park villa from the beginning of the 20th century.
