Water castle Klaffenbach

The Water Castle Klaffenbach stands above the Wuerschnitz River with white walls, curved roofs, and multiple buildings forming a complete castle complex.

The castle construction began in 1530 and became a significant example of Renaissance architecture with defensive features integrated into residential spaces.

The castle exhibits regional crafts in restored rooms, hosts theater performances, concerts, and maintains spaces dedicated to presenting traditional handicraft techniques.

The castle offers dedicated parking spaces, wheelchair-accessible pathways, a hotel, restaurants, and multiple halls for events accommodating up to 160 guests.

The castle harbors the legend of Fraeulein von Taube, who according to local tales was sealed within the tower walls for refusing an arranged marriage.
