Lenzburg Castle

Schloss Lenzburg, Lenzburg

Knight and dragon castle

Lenzburg Castle is one of the most important hilltop castles in Switzerland. Those who cross the drawbridge of Lenzburg Castle are immersed in around 1000 years of history. The residential museum shows the lives of counts and knights, Bernese bailiffs and wealthy American families. Exhibitions convey the lives of noble families and knights in the Middle Ages. Meanwhile, the prison still echoes with the lamentations of crooks and scoundrels.

In the children's museum, the youngest castle visitors dress up as knights or princesses. A visit to the cave of the castle dragon Fauchi is unforgettable. Museum Aargau also offers guided tours and workshops on selected topics for groups and schools. Lenzburg Castle is also known for its events and festivals such as the medieval market and the Fauchi festival.
