Tannenfeld Castle and Park

Highlight • Castle

A hidden area that is somewhat in a deep sleep. Here you will find peace and quiet - it is particularly beautiful here when the rhododendrons are in bloom.

The Sprottetal hiking trail is very well developed. Lots of places to sit and great bird and plant life.

Dismount before.
The bridge is a bit narrow and wobbles.
