Quaint and quiet castle in a beautiful little village about 45 minutes outside of Nuremberg. Very big contrast to the crowds at the imperial castle in the city it was almost empty when we visited on a Sunday afternoon. The castle was rebuilt after being destroyed in WWII but they did an excellent job with it and are careful to point out original and rebuilt parts and mostly used the original stone. The authentically and functional reconstructed crane and the kitchens are both really impressive. You also get nice views of the countryside. They have several interactive exhibits for kids and adults alike. Taking our time the tour probably takes a bit more than an hour to see everything including the gardens but you could do it quicker. The surrounding village was very low key but there is a lovely ice cream shop to sit at near and several restaurants along with a small art gallery. However most things will be closed on a midday weekend visit. Also as with most places in Germany ensure you have an ample supply of cash on hand as very few places will accept credit cards. If you take the train in this is literally the last stop on the line so just be aware of the schedule, from the station a city bus does make occasional trips up the hill to near the castle or you can Walk it. We found the incline and walk to be very manageable as far as castle visiting goes. If you have a little extra time in this region and would like to get out of the city a bit I would absolutely recommend this location.

Great first castle we’ve been to. Had about 40% of the castle information in English which was nice. Cute area around the castle. €6 admission. I think online said €2?

Great experiance, was not to busy with people, most of the signs where in german but still was a lot of fun in would reccomend to visit this castle. Also not to expensive 7 € per person for castle visit only.

Pleasent walk castle is closed on Mondays. Food place in grounds parking on main street

A nice place for a day trip with children. The entry fees for the castle is not much and the story is narrated in such a way that children too listen to it. A tour inside the castle and the dance steps and its recording is soo good. Children have some interactive stuffs to do.

Beautiful castle and great museum with lots of interactive/hands-on exhibits for children and grown-ups. Some information is available in English. Reasonable entry fees with 7 EUR (adults) and 6 EUR (children/senior citizens). Friendly, knowledgeable and engaging staff. Would recommend a visit.

Awesome partially restored castle, so many areas to explore. Good interactive areas and hands on displays. Agreed some displays are only in German, translated them with Google photo. Was fortunate to see the local beekeeper working that day!

It has been modernized and more so for kids of all ages..with playing materials etc...which is definitely a plus point for families. The security people kept talking on their funkt about the number of people going to the rooms..in a loud way, which l found not so..my thing. A direction arrow on the floor or to the stairs could have helped in the confusion that l had..there. Will definitely visit again in the future ☺️😊

Pretty cool castle. It has been restored very well. About 30% of the signs have English translations🙂. This is a great castle for children and those that love learning through interactivity. All sorts of screens with games and puzzles to help you learn about how life was in the Middle Ages. We visited on a Tuesday in January. We we’re almost the only guests! Maybe this is normal for German museums, but I didn’t appreciate the security staff quietly staring at me. I can tell they protect the castle very well, but it would be more pleasant if they were to offer to answer questions about the installations. Maybe they were timid that we spoke English and German?

Very interesting interactive museum inside the castle

Amazing Castle!! We expected a tiny, small town 'Burg', but WOW!!! Amazing Place, with lots of history! The Museum inside the Castle was awesome. We loved it and we will definitely come back!!

Really nice castle. Amazing view.

The castle and old city around it are beautiful. I was particularly impressed with the tasteful renovation and preservation of the castle that combines the historic structure with modern elements in a subtle, quite enjoyable way. Definitely worth a visit.

Really nice, small but tastefully restored. 7 euro admission for adults.

Small castle or burg, but it has a great view and the village is so pitoresque

It wasn't too big but it was very nice to travel through and see how it was in the old days. It was informative and fun.

A small picturesque castle, perfect for kids that are into knights in shiny Armour.

A calm, silent and serene place to spend a day off or weekends. Reaching the place is not difficult. Trains available until the burg.

Great place for a family visit - medieval castle turned into interactive museum. A lot of things to touch, try and play with; well structured exibition; a very nice lawn and garden near the entrance - perfect for picknick or just chilling in a good weather

Great 👍 had a great time with family and friends ❤️ When we visited this place some event is happening like music fest with traditional dresses, flowers 💐 😍 It's is very nice with live Music band 🎶

Beautiful part of history. Authentic old castle with beautiful surroundings...old city is beautiful

Nicely done museum. Only opening hours are rather limited for a Saturday afternoon. And that's sad because you actually want to spend more time there!

Personal does not speak english or any language except german. International tourists are not welcomed here.

It's a nice place to visit for families, you can see and get information about how they lived.

Nice place to vizit and interactive. The guide tour is worth you time.
