About this property

Living on a knight's castle

A beautiful apartment, furnished with great attention to detail. Fully equipped kitchen, terrace with a fantastic view of the Rhine plain. Who doesn't want to spend the night in a castle? In addition, a variety of offers from our experience gastronomy. Our knights' meal, fondue evenings, BBQ and more are particularly popular. v.m

The apartment is particularly popular for weddings. Celebrate into the morning and then fall straight into bed.

Let the unique backdrop of Auerbach Castle and medieval performances take you back in time.
For more than 25 years now, Junker Andreas and his castle ghosts have been organizing rustic knights' feasts, mounted tournaments and spectacular fire magic in the castle ruins. In our castle tavern you can enjoy regional specialties while the mountain road is at your feet.

Lots of space for 6 to 8 people.
From the 7th We charge € 20.00 per person extra.
Cot € 10.00, per dog € 20

We are looking forward to your visit.
