ハーゲンビュハッハの洞窟・トップ17

The exterior is currently being renovated. It's not really worth stopping by at the moment.

The New Palace next to the Old Palace was built by Count Christian Karl von Pückler-Limburg from 1753 onwards.

The place was first mentioned in 1154/57 as "Brunnen" (Brunn) in a document in which the Heilsbronn Monastery exchanged goods in this and other places for goods in other places. In 1311, the monastery sold its goods to Wolfram von Urach. From 1400 to 1458, the castle was owned by the Lords of Seckendorff, then by the Lords of Lüchau. Brunn Castle was burned down in 1409 (and again in 1501). The core of what is now known as the Old Castle dates from 1525 (the castle was damaged in the Peasants' War) and 1553 (also damaged in the Second Margrave War).

Six-axis, two-story, single-wing building with a mansard roof and a three-story corner projection with grooved pilasters. The palace was originally planned as an eleven-axis structure.

A beautiful town with the castle as its highlight. The castle is open in the summer from Tuesday to Sunday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. The forecourt and the castle garden are freely accessible. There is an admission fee for the castle itself and the exhibitions. As of 2025, the fee is €7 per person. But it's definitely worth it.

Cadolzburg Castle is an impressive medieval fortress perched on a prominent rocky outcrop above the town of the same name in Bavaria. Its history dates back to the 12th century, and for a long time it was an important base for the burgraves of Nuremberg, later known as the Hohenzollerns. The castle served not only as a defensive structure but also as an administrative center and temporary residence. Today, the castle houses a modern interactive museum called "HerrschaftsZeiten!" (HerrschaftsZeiten!), which vividly conveys the history of the Hohenzollerns in Franconia and Brandenburg.

Very beautiful castle that was extensively renovated a few years ago. Rumor has it that there is a secret underground passage to the castle from a house in the old town center. It is not our house, although we have a small walled-up room in the basement where we don't know what is behind it. We have never made the effort to open the room since we have had the house (since 1993). The basic house dates from 1939

Beautiful old building
