Intro

Here’s your chance to discover and enjoy Swiss history and spend a pleasant night. The 800-year-old castle with its museum, restaurant and youth hostel is the perfect place for a discovery tour. Education and history can be experienced up close and personal and sometimes you can get the feeling of playing a role in the movie “Night at the Museum”.

Be inspired by the various offers at Burgdorf Castle! Burgdorf Castle Youth Hostel offers a chance to stay in very special surroundings. In addition to an overnight stay within the historic walls and the opportunity to enjoy regional cuisine in the Burgdorf Castle restaurant, there is also a chance to learn much more about the past of the castle, the region and its influences beyond the country’s borders. The castle museum invites you to embark on a multimedia journey of discovery! Exciting group offers are available for corporate or teambuilding exercises. How about a “Castle Spirits and Team Spirit” workshop? Or would you prefer a guided tour on the theme of “Strong Women”? The “Medieval beer brewing method” course with master brewer Üelu is also an exciting experience for groups. The link to society past and present is explained in historical context.
