Useldange Castle

June 2022

We came upon this castle by mistake. Travelling up to the north of the country we made a stop for lunch when we saw this castle. It's super. It wasn't staffed but there were information displays going all the way up the tower. And the view at the top is super! Unfortunately thunder rumbled as soon as we reached the top so we didn't wait to enjoy the view or to experience any potential lightening!

It's not one for a day trip but worth a look if you are passing by.

Crucially it is home to an annual medieval festival. This usually takes place in June over one weekend and is not to be missed. Fine more information about the 2024 festival here.

Here are some of the photographs that I took two years ago at the 2022 festival.

Some medieval music that we enjoyed...

Some medieval foods...

The festival is bigger than it first appears.
