We found this place by a pure chance, and we felt so lucky! The castle is beautiful and well-preserved, and it has amazing views on the town and the park. It is also suitable to visit with children. The entrance fee is about 5 euros per person which is cheap comparing to other, more well-known castles. There are also less visitors there so it would be a perfect place for someone who loves history/architecture and can't stand crowds. There are also plenty of nice cafes nearby, and the town itself is marvelous. I would definitely recommend it as a day trip, and I am going to visit there again!

Huge thanks to our guide who told us so much about this Renaissance town hall. Built on the profits of a salt monopoly in the 14th to 16th century, the Rathaus has some magnificent rooms behind a Baroque facade popped on in a later era. Superb wood carvings, paintings and trompe l'oeil tiled floors. And a very long hall where the better part of the county used to dance the night away. Having its piano tuned ready for a concert when we visited. There were just 8 of us on the tour for which you just turn up and pay a small sum on the day.
