Castle of Weierburg

| View Cart ⇗ | Info

Weierburg, a fine ancient structure produces such a charming effect that every one asks its name. Though the castle has neither high towers nor walls, it bears the proud name of “burg,” (meaning an ancient or medieval fortress), and in ancient times may well have been a strong castle. Once the summer residence of the Emperor Maximilian, some of his relics are still preserved there.
