Waldeck Castle is a castle complex from the 11th century, 120m above the Edersee. From here, you can enjoy the unique landscape of the Waldeck region. Once the ancestral seat of the Counts of Waldeck, the fortress also served as barracks. In 1734 it was a state prison, later a state archive, forestry office and was used as a hotel from 1906. The "Hinter Schloss und Riegel" exhibition in the castle's cellar vaults impressively shows visitors what happened at this historic site. A particularly beautiful excursion destination is the viewing terrace, which offers a wonderful panoramic view of the Edersee.
