Burg Metternich

About

Perched above the charming town of Beilstein on the Moselle, the historic Metternich Castle is surrounded by picturesque vineyards. Owned by the same family for over 60 years, it has become one of the region's popular destination. Lovingly restored, it offers visitors not just cultural depth but also culinary delights on the spacious, partially covered Fürst Metternich terrace. Here, one can enjoy a spectacular panoramic view of the Moselle Valley. Whether opting for a ice cream, coffee, cakes, hearty dishes, or exquisite Moselle wines, Metternich Castle indulges all senses. Exploring the castle itself is equally rewarding. Visitors can climb the historic steps of the keep for an even better view or descend into the cool depths of the castle cellar. A visit here promises a comprehensive experience where history, culture, and enjoyment uniquely converge.
