What to know

The castle stands alone in forest, away from any town centre, so access is via country roads.
Only part of the building is protected and potentially open to visitors: the facades, roofs, and a few first-floor rooms.
No opening hours or admission prices are included in our data, so it is worth checking before travelling.
The site lends itself more to an exterior, landscape-focused visit than to a museum-style tour.
