Burg to Schwalenberg

At the time of Count Volkwin III. the castle was built from 1228 to 1231. The town of Schwalenberg was also established around this time. The castle was pledged to various noble families in the 15th century and was later the seat of various subsidiary lines
Between 1938 and 1945 the castle was used as a mothers convalescent home and then until 1962 as a Protestant children's convalescent home. In the following years the building was renovated and converted into a hotel.

Apartments are currently being built in the castle that combine modernity and history. The restaurant with its wonderful sun terrace is a highlight of its own.
