Information

Situated at the foot of the Vogelsberg, on the edge of the picturesque old town of Büdingen, the castle was originally built as a moated castle during the time of the Hohenstaufen Emperor Friedrich Barbarossa and has been inhabited by the family of the Princes of Ysenburg and Büdingen since 1258. Visitors are cordially invited to enjoy the special atmosphere of this old estate with its rich history. The many testimonies of past times – be it the rediscovered frescoes, the Gothic chapel with its unique choir stalls, or the many medieval exhibits – give visitors an insight into the courtly life at Büdingen Castle.
