Scavenger hunt: (Too) crazy guests
1 September until 28 September
One month a year celebration
Can you imagine having a house where you would only live one month a year? In this castle, that's how it was!
The Baron and Baroness, to whom the castle belonged, invited all family, friends and acquaintances every September. To come and stay, party, eat good food and do fun things. They were quite rich, so everything was super-deluxe!
(Too) crazy guests
The guests were also special: movie stars, fashion designers, writers, artists, people from nobility and royal families... All (too) crazy!
Would you like to know more about these guests and their stays at the castle? Are you curious about where they slept and what they had for breakfast? Would you like to know what the Baroness's room looked like and what they did in the Ballroom? And what family crests and ghost catchers are?
During the treasure hunt '(Too) crazy guests' you will discover special facts about the castle, the baron, baroness and their special guests!
