Tunzenberg Castle has had a new owner for over a year, who is investing heavily in the restoration and restoration of the entire property, including the castle park, etc. The beer garden and restaurant are worth a visit. The old brewery is also being gradually renovated.

In summer there is a great little beer garden under chestnut trees. An eBike charging station (4x Schuko) is also located outside in summer.

An impressive facility - clean and well maintained. It's a shame that the beer garden is closed at lunchtime during the week.
