Ahrensburg Castle - Great Attractions (Germany)

2011-03-19 2

Take a tour of Ahrensburg Castle in Germany – part of the World’s Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.

This Renaissance era castle in the northern most state of Germany was built in the late 16th century.

The four corner copper turrets offset the whitewashed castle creating a stunning contrast.

The interior and exterior of this magnificent structure was redesigned and refurbished during the 18th century after the castle changed ownership.

Over its more than 400 year history, the castle has consistently been privately owned by some of Germany's most noble families.

The accent designs both inside the castle and decorating the pristine white exterior walls are truly stunning.

The beautiful and extensive grounds surrounding the castle make it a spectacular destination both inside and out.
