Landau Castle
The first tip for a visit from Hotel Brunnenhaus Schloss Landau is Schloss Landau itself. With roots dating back to the 13th century and several renovations in the 14th, 16th and 17th centuries, it looks back on a long history. At the time of Christian von Waldeck, his 25 children from his first and second marriage lived here after 1680 in addition to the lord of the castle and his second wife. After 1828, the castle was leased out and used as a dairy farm, a farm college and, from 1948 to 2012, as a retirement and nursing home.
Following the current renovation, the castle now houses private rooms as well as a prestigious hall with a medieval cross vault for events and weddings. The castle park with the historic fountain, the orchard and the "therapy and sensory garden" designed in 1999 is open to the public.
