Overall Ratings

Den Himmel vor Augen Die glanzvolle Zeit der Benediktiner wiederentdecken. Strahlende Monstranzen, funkelnde Kelche, berühmte Stifterschreiben. Die Ausstellung im Museum Kloster Muri wirft einen Blick hinter die einstmals so verschlossenen Klostermauern und erzählt zahlreiche Geschichten aus dem Leben der Äbte und Mönche. Und von den mächtigen Habsburgern, die einst ganz Europa beherrschten.
2. Wildegg Castle
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 82 reviews
Surrounded today by gardens, pastures and vineyards, the castle was founded by the Habsburgs in the first half of the 13 century. Along with its domain the castle was owned by eleven generations of the Effinger dynasty. Immerse yourself in an authentic experience of historical gardening culture and comfortable living. Between 1483 and 1912 Wildegg Castle was the seat of the Effinger dynasty. The family was part of the landed gentry and had been admitted to the Bernese patriciate. During this time the castle and its outbuildings were repeatedly adapted to suit the changing requirements. The prestige of the dynasty was illustrated by the spoils of war that Bernhard Effinger brought back in 1683 from fighting the Turks outside Vienna, and by Holderbank Church which contains the family vault. An audio guide introduces selected members of the family and tells their life stories.

We had seen the Schloss signposted so decided we should visit. What a good choice we made. The castle is fully intact with many rooms over numerous floors to visit, each room telling you something of the history of the people who lived there and the castle itself. In various rooms, there were video screens designed to look like oil paintings which came to life, each telling their own little story. Whilst the narrative was in German, these provided sub-titles in English and French. Outside, the gardens are worth visiting. All in all, a great day out.
