About Waldegg Castle
Waldegg Castle is rightly considered the most beautiful country manor of the Solothurn patriciate. Today the castle is a museum - and inside, baroque-furnished salons and massive oil paintings document former, everyday life. And outdoors, baroque-style premises with orange trees and vegetable garden invite you to a leisurely stroll. It was one of the iconic buildings in this area and it attracts a lot of visitors.Address : Schloss Waldegg, Waldeggstrasse 1, 4532 Feldbrunnen-St. Niklaus, Switzerland
