This family's experience:

Activities: We visited the Historisches Museum Saar. We explored the underground parts of the fortress from the Middle Ages and Renaissance. We went down into a dimly lit rock crevice, looked up at the steep castle wall, and stood in front of various siege weapons. We also listened to the audio plays

Highlights: The kids were thrilled. We loved the audio plays that could be started at various stations by pressing a button. The history was conveyed in an entertaining way. History is fun and you learn something here, that was perfectly done! ✨
