Schloss Neuenburg

Top choice in Central Germany


This large medieval castle on the hill above town is one of Freyburg’s highlights. It houses an excellent museum that illuminates various aspects of medieval life. The complex includes a rare Romanesque two-storey (or ‘double’) chapel and a free-standing tower, the Dicker Wilhelm, which has further historical exhibitions and splendid views.
