To make a day of it
Burg Aschhausen stands in Schöntal (Hohenlohekreis), in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
Burg Aschhausen stands in Schöntal, in the district that bears its name, its various buildings arranged around a shared inner courtyard. The keep, dating from the 13th or 14th century, is the oldest surviving part, while the residential wing was added between 1912 and 1914. Once held by the lords of Aschhausen and later by the abbots of Schöntal, the estate has belonged to the von Zeppelin family since 1803, who now use it mainly for events and have set up a museum with pieces from the family collection.
What to know
- The building is privately owned by the von Zeppelin family and functions mainly as an event venue, so free visits are limited.
- A museum housed in part of the complex displays items from the family's collection.
- The site lies in the hamlet of Aschhausen, set apart from the centre of Schöntal.
- No reliable opening hours, prices or accessibility details are available, so it is worth checking directly before planning a visit.
