Create an itinerary including Herzberg Castle
Herzberg Castle (German: Schloss Herzberg) is a German schloss in Herzberg am Harz in the district of Göttingen in the state of Lower Saxony. The present-day, quadrangular building has its origins in the 11th century as a medieval castle. After a fire in 1510 it was rebuilt as a schloss and is one of the few in Lower Saxony that was constructed as a timber-framed building. Because it belonged to the House of Welf for 700 years it is also known as the Welf Castle of Herzberg (Welfenschloss Herzberg).

    Highly disappointed after hiking there, the castle is under renovations , should have been posted, and museum was closed for a wedding, total waste of day, won’t be back.

    Under renovation, the museum was ok but not really worth the effort.

    It's okay for a quick peek and great to look at but there's not much to do and the renovations also diminish the enjoyment.
