Well worth the few bucks it costs. Interesting to read about the Krupp family history. Staff was friendly and helpful. Expect to spend between 1 and 3 hours here.

This is an impressive villa that underwent redecorating after the first owner died. The family portraits in the entrance hall are great. We went on a guided tour. Otherwise we would not have learned anything about the place as it's not a museum with a curated exhibition. Rather, the villa is mainly used for Foundation events and concerts. They have a small exhibition on the Krupp family in a side wing of the house. I would have loved to get more hardcore history facts. But it was a nice visit.

A reasonable 5 euro admission with free parking.
Lovely home of the Krupp family with historical information and displays.
Two main houses to see, the small and large.
The large is very grandiose with an amazing upstairs space and remarkable ceiling.
Nice grounds to walk round.

The ticket costs 10€. But inside there are few rooms to see. Beautiful park, this is where you should take a walk.

very interesting fairytale place with aristocratic spirit! the place is very good for weekend walks. with the Great Garden and the spirit of the whole estate one manages to abstract from the energetic modern city life
