Schloss Wartenfels

Schloss Wartenfels, Lostorf

The landmark of Niederamt is enthroned at the eastern end of the Dottenberg, where the front Jura chain is abruptly interrupted by one of the Klusen. Paul Gugelmann's wind sculpture "View of the world" is symbolic. It is not possible to say exactly when Wartenfels Castle was built. Wernher von Wartenfels was first mentioned in 1250. However, what was going on between the towns of Aarau and Olten at that time could be observed from the castle. On clear days, the entire Alpine panorama from the Säntis to the Titlis, Eiger and Blüemlisalp can be seen. There is also a direct line of sight to the castles of Wildegg, Lenzburg, Wartburg and Aarburg.
Several temporary exhibitions and cultural events are held at Wartenfels Castle every year.
