"Very nice Castle , For a small fee you can visit this castle and also take a walk around the surroundings. They also have a small area where you can have a drink. I recommend visiting the castle."

"You can see the medieval part of the castle for 7 euros. You'll tour through it within an hour, but it's very impressive and imaginative to walk around! You also get a free shot of schnapps :)"
