Surrounded by the spectacular nature of the Harz Mountains, the Wellness and Spa Hotel Wasserschloss Westerburg offers the ideal place to unwind. Encircled by a picturesque moat fed by a natural spring, the castle showcases a blend of medieval architecture and baroque charm. The origins of the Wasserschloss date back to the 12th century, making it one of the oldest preserved water castles in Germany.

The quaint village of Westerburg is nestled in the picturesque landscape of the northern Harz foothills. Westerburg captivates with its charm, featuring traditional half-timbered houses and small farms. The area is excellent for hiking or cycling. It is also very popular among bird watchers and nature photographers.

The rich breakfast buffet with fresh fruit, bread, and egg dishes is served daily from 7:30-10:30 a.m. in the restaurant with castle vaults. Fresh and seasonal ingredients are combined in an international cuisine with regional elements. Lunch and dinner are offered à la carte. Additionally, Wasserschloss Westerburg features a hotel bar.

The hotel is connected to the "Harzvorlandweg" cycling trail, which links the states of Thuringia, Saxony-Anhalt, and Lower Saxony. Explore the surroundings on a bike ride and enjoy the magnificent nature. There are also hiking trails through the idyllic countryside. Cultural events, such as medieval festivals, occasionally take place at the castle itself. Bicycles and e-bikes can be rented on site for a fee (approx. 20-45€/day (approx.
