"I would like to be a child of the castle."

Description

"Me too, I would like to be a 'Ching of the castle'": a day in the shoes of a '...de Besenval' How was it to live in a castle as a child? During the Wednesday "Ferienspass", girls and boys aged 8 to 12 immerse themselves for a morning in the life of a noble family at Waldegg Castle. With a costume, a baroque Besenval name, and a good dose of imagination, they become young nobles themselves: they explore the castle, learn the rules of the court, play baroque games, and are even "ennobled" at the end for their commitment. A morning full of history, games, and costumes for all those who have always wanted to know what life in a castle looked like. In brief Date/time: Wednesday, October 14, 2026, from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m.
