Mooie burcht met geweldig uitzicht. Houd wel rekening met een stevige klim naar boven.
Advies is om met de auto naar de parkeerplaats van de burcht zelf te rijden, dat kost €5 aan parkeerkosten. Vanaf de parkeerplaats duurt de wandeling naar de burcht ongeveer 15 minuten. Een goede conditie is aan te raden.

Wonderful place to go with family, friends, partner or on your own. Enjoy the history and stories as much as the views.

Awesome. They have an English tour guide but check the time. She is softly spoken but is quite knowledgeabl. I went today 8th of January and it was quite cold minus 5 with a little biit of snow. But the interior is nice and warm. The cafe also has an english waitress.

Might be quite packed in peak periods.

Well preserved castle 🏰 Amazing views and a lot of places to set and chill 🌳the hike trails are super fun and when reaching the castle a lot of things to see and to enjoy and it's worth to visit the museum as well.

Interesting castle to visit, English tour only at 1.30pm but you can scan a downloadable audio guide(Q- code on your ticket) and join a German tour and listen on your phone. Ear phones recommend or low volume with phone to your ear.

A nice castle with rich history streching from its construction in 1067 to 1999, when it was officially made a UNESCO world heritage site. Tour was highly interesting, and the castle is middle-sized but there is much to see. This is the castle where Martin Luther translated the new testament from Greek to German in 1521. Astounding view from the south tower over the valley at a height of 500 meters(1600 feet). Inner decoration is nice as well, detailed mosiacs and late Romanesque architecture are quite impactful. This is the ideal castle.

You could only visit the castle's museum and inside with a guide tour and I prefer to check those out on my own. It was a plus point though that the castle itself had a description in several languages. The most disappointing was that you had to pay to go up to the smaller tower after you've had paid your ticket. Although the castle itself was truly mesmerising and beautiful.

Wartburg Castle is truly a remarkable historical landmark, brimming with rich cultural heritage. The castle's architecture and historical significance make it a must-visit destination for history enthusiasts and culture lovers alike. The stunning views from the castle offer a glimpse into the past, transporting visitors to a different era. It's an experience that's both educational and awe inspiring.

A beautiful castle which is UNESCO world heritage site. There are mindblowing mosaic paintings of St. Elizabeth. It is also the place where Martin Luther translated Bible to German language. I was so mesmarised to see such a magnificent castle. A must visit castle in Germany.!!

Prachtig kasteel, bovenop een berg. Voor mensen, die het niet zien zitten om ruim een kwartier trappen te lopen naar boven rijdt er een busje voor €2,50 p.p. enkele reis. Je koopt een kaartje voor een rondleiding van ongeveer een uur. De rondleiding is in het Duits, maar voor de meeste andere talen is een flyer beschikbaar. Het kasteel is heel mooi van binnen. De toer eindigt in een klein museum, waar je zelfstandig door mag lopen. Het eindigt in de museumwinkel. Wij hebben onze toer besloten boven op het terras met een lekker drankje.
Oja, helaas is dit werelderfgoed niet geschikt om te bezoeken voor mensen in een rolstoel of voor mensen met kinderwagens.

It was one of the best castles I have visited. I recommend going early to avoid the crowds. You can buy tickets online to avoid them selling out during peak tourist season, but you can also buy them on site. The ticket office is past the drawbridge but before the second gate area. Remember to buy a photo pass with your ticket if you want to take photos during the tour.
