Landgrafen Palace

It's a fantastic place! I'd tell it's a heart of a very beautiful city of Marburg! Going up to the Schloss (castle ) I felt if i went down to the heart of Middle Age Europe, where feudal wars took place... And mentally I was estimating how hard would it be to storm this castle in old lang sine... When only walking up, not storming, without any resistance from inside, was not easy for a spoiled XXI century guy.

I didn't know much about Marburg and ended up there a bit by chance. I think this was a wonderful alternative to Rothenburg, maybe better. The old town and walk to the castle are everything you want or expect when visiting Germany.

Visiting Marburg and ofcourse you shouldn’t miss out of the Marburg castle. Ok, not as famous as Heidelberg castle or some castles and fortresses along the river Rhine, but still a wonderful historical place to visit for some cool photos. And the advantage is, it’s also not as crowded as some other castles.

The castle towers over the old town. At the gates of the castle there is a giant shoe, Cinderella's shoe. In fact, many of the Brothers Grimm's fairy tales are inspired by this region. Inside the castle there is a museum, unfortunately we did not visit it, and I am still sorry for that 😢. We stayed on its walls for a few minutes and admired the city from above. The view is absolutely great, so the visit is a must if you are in Marburg. In some parts of the wall, there were some kind of balconies to admire the soroundings and the town laying under it!

Very nice views and there is a big garden for a nice stroll.

Nice walk up the hill and good view from the top

outside area is great and good view! The palace itself is good! You wont miss anything if you don’t go inside in the palace. pretty ordinary stuff and exhibition from a artist with no background about theme. There is a good cafe nearby. Good parking possibility! In the complete castle area it’s cobbled stones so stroller can be used but it’s very difficult to push through!

Very interesting and historical place. It’s well maintained palace. We enjoyed of discovering it. As it’s located at the top of city and from another side a park. Definitely you have to visit this place.
