HISTORY:
The castle was first mentioned in 1186 and overlooks a varied history. It was built by “those to Plancinstain” of a powerful noble family. However, it owes its name to the material from which it was built: white limestone, blanc, as they said at the time. From 1800, however, the castle fell more and more and was only renovated in its basic walls in the 1970s.
Since 2010, the castle has enjoyed a new splendor: with a lot of attention to detail, it has been brought back to life! Historic castle ingredients, original materials meet stylish contemporary comforts, creating a unique feel-good atmosphere.
Guest access
Each guest has a room with their own bathroom- There are currently 5 rooms listed on Airbnb with different amenities and prices. Definitely the perfect room is included for you.
The rest of the castle area is shared: Burgtaverne where the breakfast is served and the possibility for lunch and dinner, the Arkadenhof, the castle shop, a climbing park and the entire outdoor area with forest, the viewing platform and lots of pure nature.
