Nice old place, did you knock on the door?

Wonder if the current owners have much use of the defensive walls? They might be a barrier to bill collectors. While this castle is historic and great looking, don't think I would like it as a home. Lovely photos of the outer walls. Makes me wonder what it looks like on the inside?

It's a place that looks very old. Does the fact that it's private mean someone lives there?

I don't know, Sharon, I have not seen anyone...

Exactly how I imagine a castle!

Looks like my house before I started renovating it. :-)

Wouldn't it be amazing if the interior is all renovated and modern!

Herrliche Festung. Würde aber nicht die Elektrizität Rechnung bezahlen wollen! ;-)

It is visually interesting, but I don't really want to live in a castle like that.
