Plan your visit ↗

Distinguishing different practices

The subjects mentioned use different means and settings. Let the display explain what belongs to which practice, so the collection becomes more than a series of unusual tools.

Looking at the image

A print and a taxidermy specimen each give a different kind of information. Pay attention to the explanation accompanying the display and to the purpose for which an object was originally made or used.

Part of a castle visit

Access is via the castle ticket. This lets you combine the hunting collection with the furnished rooms, but the route and available rooms do need to fit your planning.

Before you go

The castle has many stairs. Discuss accessibility in advance and use the current castle ticket shop for opening times and admission conditions.
