OUR FAMILY ASSESSMENT

Family Intelligence

The ticket decision comes first: the castle-and-museum ticket costs more, while the castle-only ticket leaves out the museum but keeps the café and shop. The castle area itself is a car-free zone, so the last stretch is either by the regional bus from Lenzburg station or on foot from the signposted car parks. The trade-off is the historic building itself: parts of the site and the larger exhibition areas can only be reached by stairs, with no stairlift. A wheelchair-accessible toilet is on site. Dogs are not allowed inside the castle, although assistance dogs are welcome across the whole site, and the castle closes on the day of the Lenzburger Jugendfest in July.
