Sleeping Beauty’s Castle

Located very near to Munden and Gottingen, this isolated 600+ years old castle is situated deep into the forest, off the main road. Dornröschenschloss Sababurg , also known as Sleeping Beauty’s Castle, was turned into a hunting lodge in 1765 and frequently visited by the Brothers Grimm. Like many castle hotels, it has rooms in both the original section (in this case a romantic tower) and a newer wing. The modern rooms have been skillfully added on to part of the castle ruins. An animal park below is populated with beasts boasting very old lineages and extends for as far as the eye can see. It is Europe’s oldest animal park/zoo, and I recommend a visit.
