... Due to its haunted past, there is also an annual Halloween extravaganza, a garden and nature show in the Spring and year round access to use the castle for private functions and events. But the most famous and romantic is the Christmas Markets.
The organizers of the event use over 30,000 lights and candles to create a traditional and romantic mood, with Christmas music piping out over the speakers, and the historical feel of the castle in the background. Visitors can buy items such as roasted almonds and mulled wine and for a few hours before you get back to the modern Christmas era, you can be transported back to Medieval times and imagine yourself walking where so many have walked before you.
