THE RAPUNZEL TOWER

With a height of over 40 meters and walls up to 7 meters thick, the high keep of Trendelburg Castle proved a match for many an attacker. Those who are not afraid of the more than 130 steps can enjoy the fantastic landscape of northern Hesse, high above the roofs of Trendelburg. From the viewing platform, even Kassel can be glimpsed in the far distance on a clear day.

With the “Torture Museum” deep down in the depths of the tower, the “Fear Hole”, which to this day has only a small opening, and the Grimm’s Floor, with enchanting silhouettes by the artist Albert Völkl, the tower is an attraction without equal.
