Ehrenberg Castle World in Reutte

The museum with its 14 rooms brings you closer to the world of knights. This also includes being able to throw armor and helmets, watching alchemists with their explosive experiments, and encountering creepy skeletons in the plague chamber. Modern audiovisual installations ensure that you feel even more transported back in time with images, sound, and film. Great emphasis is placed on realistic representation here.

An exhibition on nature playfully brings visitors closer to the fauna and flora of the region. Learn more about the last wild river in the northern Alpine region, discover the region from a spectacular bird's-eye view in the adventure cinema, examine insects through a magnifying glass, and listen to the river stones as they tell their stories.

Young visitors can participate in an exciting museum rally that revolves around the life of the knight Rü;diger in an informative yet entertaining way. Once all the questions in the puzzle book are solved, it's time for the certificate distribution. And those who have been dubbed a knight or a castle maiden can stride through the castle complex with their heads held high and celebrate.

In addition, there is the opportunity to lift a legendary treasure or to embark on the adventurous search for the magical Ehrenberg sword. Children receive their treasure hunter booklet at the museum cash desk.

And those who wish to continue their knightly duties can do so at the castle playground, where not only a suspension bridge and a watchtower must be conquered, but where the dragon Firemouth also looks forward to cheerful company.

If hunger presents the gauntlet, you can take up the duel in the Salzstadel restaurant. Here you can not only enjoy the hearty knight's meal but also regional snack specialties for the smaller appetite.

Also, make a detour to the neighboring Fort Claudia. Crossing the world's longest pedestrian suspension bridge in the Tibet style is an unforgettable experience. The view from dizzying heights deserves the label 'unique' like hardly anything else and will greatly enhance your photo album.

By the way, knight games take place every year in the walls of the Ehrenberg castle ensemble, which provide an ancient and exuberant atmosphere with tournaments, gladiator fights, and a medieval market.

For more information on events, opening hours, and admission prices, you can lift from the treasure chamber on the website of the Ehrenberg castle world.
