Highlight • Castle

One of the highlights in the area. Three completely different castles in different styles and a very nice view of the Saale valley. The garden is also beautifully landscaped.

Since I was in the area, I made a detour to the castles. A visit there is always nice. The castles are being renovated and built a lot. However, the grounds are not affected. Unfortunately, the restaurant is closed. It was always nice to sit there and enjoy the view.
