We enjoyed the walk up through the forest with our little children. The belvedere is very much worth a visit, young and old enjoyed the climb and view.

The museum is a bit confusing because it is spread over several floors of two buildings and it is easy to miss the second (lower) building which is arguably the best part. Good value because there is a combined ticket with the castle so you can take in this one on the walk back to the town. We enjoyed the bits about the families that owned the castle and especially the top floor of the lower house which is a wonderful space in the timbered loft dedicated to the iron work businesses that were in the town in the 18th and 19th centuries, a real surprise.
