Hohenzollern Castle
Baden-Wumterberg, Stugart, Germany
Description:
The halls and rooms of the castle contain the richest collections of paintings, dishes made of gold, silver and porcelain from the personal archives of German princes and emperors. Today it is not so much a museum as a major cultural and historical center, in which, together with the traditional museum, cultural events of various nature and levels regularly take place throughout the year.
Almost all year round there are numerous concerts and exhibitions. In the summer there is an open-air cinema. At Christmas, this castle turns into a real fairy-tale palace, where fairy tales come to life and magic happens. Christmas Week is one of the most important cultural events of the year.
To get to the castle, you need to overcome a rather steep climb up the stairs. The journey to the castle will take about 20 minutes, but during this time you can see the beautiful high-mountain forest and breathe the air that once breathed the most eminent German aristocrats and emperors.
