Die Burg ist sehr gut erhalten, da sie nie erobert wurde. Außerdem verfügten die Esterhazys über eine große Sammelleidenschaft. Dementsprechend viele Highlights gibt es in dieser Highlight-Führung zu sehen, die vom Führer sehr kompetent erläutert werden.
Ein Highlight ist allerdings auch der Preis, denn 18 € für eine 90-minütige Führung sind gerade keine Okkassion. Wenn man die berühmte Schatzkammer ebenfalls sehen möchte, muss man eine weitere Führung bezahlen.

Visited in mid October with my parents and were impressed by the incredible views from the castle walls. As other reviewers have stated, the castle itself is only accessible via one of 2 tours which are available in both German and English. We opted for the English/German castle tour which took us round both the interior and exterior of the castle. Our guide was was informative and was able to answer our questions on both the Esterhazy family and the castle. After the tour we were able to admire both the views from the castle walls and also the harvest displays dotted around the castle. There are plenty of clean toilets, a well stocked gift shop and a lovely cafe/restaurant within the castle grounds.
We always double-check the availability with our local partners for each booking. Even though this is usually a swift process, it can take up to 24 hours.
