Old Sheep Farm

In 1498, the castle’s sheep-farm was first mentioned in an inventory of the castle, as the "sheep-farm at the front of the castle" and served as an additional supply facility for the castle inhabitants. Today, the old sheep farm hosts a farming museum with various exhibits, providing insights into rural life and farming techniques. The farming museum presents an insight into what rural, peasant life was like.  It feels like the clock has been turned back many centuries. 

The farming museum additionally offers project days for children:
