Schloss Drachenburg is the Neuschwanstein on the Rhine. Located below the Drachenfels easy to reach by cog railway or on foot. Parking is available in Königswinter sufficient. Throughout the year numerous events take place in the Villa Drachenburg as well as on our little tour.

Hiking

Unfortunately, we only came to the front gates, because you have to pay for the entrance fee. But even the sight from afar is worthwhile. From here there is a beautiful hiking trail to the waterfall at the Victory.

Hiking

A really beautiful Harry Potter castle where you can explore almost every nook and cranny. Anyone who pays the entrance fee can escape the crowds of tourists who hike to the Drachenfels and enjoy a crispy waffle in the café with the best view and little hustle and bustle.

You can find the prices and opening times here: schloss-drachenburg.de.
