Burghausen – The castle

We spent a very hot Sunday afternoon at the medieval castle of Burghausen, the longest castle in Europe with walls over 1 km long!  There were 6 different courtyards in the palace, and we could see the development of the castle thru the years, but mostly it was just hot.  We thought that on a hill overlooking the amazing old town we would get a bit of a breeze, but there was nothing.

 

Sophia ended up in the stroller, while Alexandra got a ride with Troy.  Both girls fell asleep in the car on the way home…

Thru the courtyards there were chapels, private gardens, a cafe, and an amazing view to a swimming lake down below (from now on we bring our bathing suits for day trips).
