The mighty baroque castle dominates the silhouette of the town, visible from afar. The “Long Drive”, an access road surrounded by high walls that had to be partially hewn into the rock, also dates from the Baroque period. The castle itself is surrounded by a rose garden with Baroque statues. From the 1930s until the withdrawal of the Soviet army, the castle served as barracks. Today, the castle houses exhibitions from the regional museum and archives, among other things. Also on display: a selection of historical weapons in the former armory, baroque paintings and sculptures, porcelain, ceramics, clocks and furniture. On the first floor there is a permanent exhibition on the history of the castle and the Thun-Hohnstein family, the lords of the castle from the mid-17th century to 1932.
