Schloss Reinbek with kids

At Schloss Reinbek, children explore the historic rooms playfully in the Schloss-Entdecker (castle explorers) series. In the stately halls with elaborately painted wood-beam ceilings, changing art exhibitions and a permanent exhibition on the castle's and region's history are on display. Around the castle lies a park with old trees and a view of the Mühlenteich.

The transition into the Sachsenwald forest is seamless, so a visit to the castle combines well with a hike or bike ride. Inside the building there's a restaurant with a terrace overlooking the park — a relaxed way to round off a family outing.

The nearby S-Bahn station Reinbek makes access easy even without a car. Generally open Wednesday to Sunday; on event days or during private functions parts may be closed temporarily — it's worth checking the website before visiting.
