Hauenstein

I slept here for the weekend - great staff, tasty food, good beer, little bit barebones and sometimes cold inside in early October.

Small but nice castle, the entrance cost is quite high though.

Need to see. Castle under heavy reconstruction from pure ruin to nice castle. You can see all stages. A lot of fun for kids too.

Well worth a visit. An historical castle being slowy rennovated. Food and drinks available. And on occasion a small entrance fee. And on the weekend, they have reannacment sword fighting and firing of cannons etc. And a old church a little further on the next hill overlooking the castle itself. Great views of the surrounding area, perfect for photos. There is a fully restored tower on the grounds that has a very winding staircase to capture amazing photos.

The castle is still during partial reconstruction, but it's really nice nonetheless. We had several photoshoots there and the location is incredible. The castle itself and the surrounding nature was lovely, almost otherworldly.
