Blumenfeld Castle

Schloss Blumenfeld is a Renaissance castle in Blumenfeld, part of the town of Tengen in southern Germany, that has been revived since 2021 as a cultural and community hub. The historic building, once a castle and court, now hosts concerts, exhibitions, readings and other events in its historic rooms. It also operates as a real-world laboratory for cultural participation and social innovation, with a castle café, coworking space and guest rooms.

Families and Kids

The castle hosts various events and formats for young and old, including children's programmes organised by the citizens' association. The castle garden with sun terrace offers space to play and relax, and table tennis is available in the garden.

FAQ

  • How can I reach Schloss Blumenfeld by public transport?
    Schloss Blumenfeld is reachable by bus: line 301 from Engen station (about 20 minutes) and line 300 from Singen station (about 34 minutes). On Sundays, public holidays and after 8 pm, an on-demand bus (Rufbus) runs and must be ordered by phone at least one hour in advance.
  • Where can I park when visiting the castle?
    There are no parking spaces in the historic part of Blumenfeld. Visitors can park below the federal road at the Bosch Car Service Talgarage, from where a short 3-minute walk through the old town leads directly to the castle.
  • Is the castle accessible for wheelchair users?
    The exhibition rooms on the second floor are only reachable via stairs and are therefore unfortunately not barrier-free. No other accessibility information is provided on the website.
  • Can I visit the castle outside the café opening hours?
    The exhibitions can be visited during the castle café opening hours, i.e. every two weeks on Sundays from 14:00 to 17:00. Individual guided tours can be arranged on request, and the castle is also open to all during various events.
  • Are there overnight accommodation options at the castle?
    Yes, the castle offers individually furnished guest rooms (comfort and standard rooms) around the castle courtyard, each with its own small bathroom with shower. Guests cook in shared kitchens and can use the communal rooms and coworking space.
