The Eltz Castle Treasury houses a collection of precious objects spanning several centuries, owned by the noble Eltz family, including gold and silversmith works, ivory objects, porcelain, glass, and ceremonial and military weapons. The Armory and Treasury opened in 1980 and offers insights into the possessions of the Eltz Electors and other family members.
What you will find in the Treasury:
Valuable arts and crafts: Gold and silversmith works, ivory objects, and artfully crafted porcelain and glass.
Historical weapons: Ceremonial and military weapons, including the oldest known cannon bolts in the world, are exhibited in the castle's armory, which is often combined with the treasury.
Drinking vessels: A highlight is a 17th-century drinking game featuring Diana, the goddess of the hunt, sitting on a stag that could glide across the table.
Special features:
Eltz Castle has been owned by the Eltz family for over 800 years and boasts almost complete historical furnishings.
The treasury is not just a collection of objects, but also showcases the wealth and culture of the Eltz family over the centuries.
Access:
Eltz Castle is part of a museum that visitors can visit daily to marvel at the authentic historical rooms and the treasury.
