The Zabelstein ruins are a wonderful place. The remains of the castle, the rest area with kiosk and the observation tower are inviting. A childhood memory!

Interesting building ensemble from different eras. Somehow everything fits together harmoniously. An absolute must when visiting Bamberg.

Beautiful property and great view. You can try delicious wines in the wine shop. Opening hours in summer daily from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.

The Altenburg is a medieval hilltop castle in the west of the independent city of Bamberg in the Bavarian administrative region of Upper Franconia

The inner part of the park is designed in a strictly formal manner. A large avenue of linden trees runs through the entire length of the park as a central axis. A walk along the avenue is always an experience: In spring, walk under the delicate green of the awakening linden trees, in summer, enjoy the shady coolness under the roof of the avenue, in autumn, walk on the golden carpet of linden leaves and in winter, enjoy the bizarre crown shapes of the avenue trees. https://www.geistliches-zentrum-schwanberg.de/erleben/schlosspark/rundgang-schlosspark/

The magnificent facades of the New Residence show how the baroque prince-bishops resided. A highlight of the baroque interior is the Kaisersaal. The Tyrolean-born painter Melchior Steidl frescoed the walls and ceiling of the hall from 1707 to 1709 with a complex pictorial program that shows the connection between the prince-bishopric and the rulers of the Old Kingdom. In addition to the showrooms of the palace administration, the New Residence also houses the State Gallery of the Bavarian State Painting Collections with masterpieces of old German and Baroque painting.

The Old Court houses the Historical Museum and the Catherine Chapel. The Katharinenkapelle offers space for civil weddings and since 2004 the 1000-year history of the city, which has become a cult piece, has been performed there under the title "Light and Shadow" on weekends from May to October.

Hoheneck Castle is now used as a youth educational center and cannot be visited from the inside. But the castle in the vineyard is also a beautiful sight from the outside.
