We had a pleasant and instructive stay at the Burg Rabenstein with a visit to the Sophienhöhle. The rooms were very comfortable. We have never slept so well. The castle and its history are worth taking the time for the tour and others activities....

The castle itself was beautiful and the artefacts it held within fascinating. Loved being able to roam freely and explore. Grounds adjacent to nature trails and a majestical cave.
