One of the most beautiful castles in Germany, Wernigerode Castle is a former royal residence that towers over the old town of Wernigerode in the Harz Mountains. Museum tours guide guests through over 40 living rooms of the royal family of Stolberg-Wernigerode, some of which still have the original furniture. Unmissable sights at Wernigerode Castle include the romantic inner courtyard, the large hall with the banquet table and the originally furnished royal rooms. The castle occasionally hosts festivals with opera performances, promenade concerts and children's performances.
