Immerse yourself in the development of the castle from its first documented mention in 1326 to the present day. Dr Jens Friedhoff, historian and expert on the von Hatzfeldt family, will explain the history of Crottorf Castle and show you the grounds and inner courtyard.
Like Schönstein Castle near Wissen, Friedewald Castle near Daaden, Wildenburg Castle and Freusburg Castle near Kirchen an der Sieg, Crottorf Castle, which has been in the possession of the von Hatzfeldt family since 1563, is one of the most important art and historical monuments in the Altenkirchen district.
