The best in the city of pencils Beautiful structure that hosted this weekend's winter market...perfect grounds for such. I need more time to explore the entire complex (museum, shop, surrounding area, etc) and regret that I could not take pictures (besides the one that I snuck when the roving security wasn't looking) of the inside (for example the lavish bathrooms--not the public one, the huge ones!). Small free lot and cheap public parking garage nearby. I didn't enter the and company but definitely will do that at first opportunity! Important: the guide is only in german! We went the beliving that the guide would be in english, but wasn't. The is in group and we had to follow the ritm of the group, so we didn't have time to read the english texts near the pictures, and it's not allowed take pictures inside the Castle. So, it wasn't possible to take a picture for read the texts later. All this made us felt really lost during the visit. We had lucky that the guide notice our interesting and helped us. She gave her speach for everone in german and after that she translate the resume of the history for us. We were really grateful to her for that. But I beleive that a big and International brand like Faber Castel it's able to has at least a print material in english for the international visitors. The store it's cute and has a divertsity of products. A great suvinier to take back from Germany. If you will made the and the castle, you will have 15% discount. Very beautiful small castle. It’s incredible how you can literally smell the pencils smell all around the area. This is because the actual factory is just next door. Really worth the 👍🏻 Such wonderful grounds! Even if you don’t want to inside, you can walk around the area and see the beauty from the outside. I’d definitely combine the with the factory tour, a to the shop and this castle! Just pure beauty! Fabulous castle, looks like famous castle, which we can see before cartoons))for me. Calm place to walk around and to get a peaceful pleasure. Won't take long time to look around, about an hour or less I recommend to this place in summer during the sunny weather Interesting walk through the long history of Faber-Castell family. The guide was very knowledgeable and made the tour really enjoyable. A very good place even there is an event going on now called WONDERLAND, and lasting till January very nice all my family was happy to be there My wife has been a fan of Faber-Castell for decades. This year, for her birthday we decided to the factory and castle. We were welcomed with such fabulous kindness and professionalism, I was overwhelmed. Stephanie was our guide. We chose to tour the castle. (The Factory and the museum were our other options.) She did an amazingly thorough tour including all the details. The history of the family and how it coincides with the growth of the company from a small operation to the largest multinational company of its kind was amazing. She was so gracious and patient with our questions. I cannot thank the staff of Faber-Castell Guest Services enough. You made my wife's birthday very special. Thank you!
