Schlossberg
Quedlinburg's largely Renaissance castle buildings perch on top of the Schlossberg (Castle Hill), with a terrace overlooking woods and valley. The grounds include the Schlossmuseum, which has exhibits on the history of the town and castle, artifacts of the Bronze Age, and the wooden cage in which a captured 14th-century robber baron was put on public view. Restored 17th- and 18th-century rooms give an impression of castle life at that time. Due to extensive renovation work to the Abbey, the palace and museum are closed until 2025. It is still worth visiting the hill, if not only for the panoramic view of Quedlinburg from the baroque Schlossgarten.
