    Cadolzburg Castle is an impressive medieval fortress perched on a prominent rocky outcrop above the town of the same name in Bavaria. Its history dates back to the 12th century, and for a long time it was an important base for the burgraves of Nuremberg, later known as the Hohenzollerns. The castle served not only as a defensive structure but also as an administrative center and temporary residence.

    Today, the castle houses a modern interactive museum called "HerrschaftsZeiten!" (HerrschaftsZeiten!), which vividly conveys the history of the Hohenzollerns in Franconia and Brandenburg.

    Very well made exhibition on the history of the House of Hohenzollern and life 500 years ago. Many interactive possibilities including trying on a knight's armor.

    A really small village with the center of the castle 🏰, herb garden, shop and museum. A Hohenzollern castle that invites you to linger. You can park your bike and explore the small "village center" on foot is even better
