Open guided tour of the "Klause" national monument

  • Kastel-Staadt

Discover the Klause on a guided tour! The "Klause" of Kastel-Staadt is located on a sandstone plateau high above the Saar with fascinating views over the Saar valley. The former Celtic-Roman refuge and hermit's dwelling was remodelled by the Prussian King Frederick William IV and his master builder Karl Friedrich von Schinkel as a burial church for the blind King John of Bohemia. He thus created one of the most important examples of Romanesque architecture.
