Personally, I think this castle rivals the famous Neuschwanstein and is much less touristy, which is always a plus. It’s roughly an hour south of Stuttgart too, making it an easy day trip. Hohenz...
This Christmas Market lived up to my expectations. While it’s small, there were stands set up in the courtyard and the garden, as well as a few other areas inside the castle and around it. We also had access to view a lot of the castle on our own. We were able to go underground into the cellars, visit the main hall inside, the two churches, and the...
When you arrive, park at one of the lots below the castle. They’re well-marked. Then to get to the castle, you can either walk up the side trail (it might be slick this time of year) or take the shuttle bus.

The Royal Winter Magic is not a Christmas market, but a very elaborately designed special exhibition inside and outside the castle. Instead of stall charm and crowds, it offers a Christmas atmosphere in a historical setting. In the Count's Hall, a twelve-metre-long table will be on display with original service and silver from imperial stocks, flanked by a seven-metre-high Christmas tree. But ...
Dec 23, 2011 · Hohenzollern Christmas Market. Only open a few weekends in December, this market quickly became a favorite of mine, mostly because it’s a Christmas Market at a castle.
