---

Falkenhof Schloss Rosenburg is a popular attraction at the historic Rosenburg Castle overlooking Riedenburg in Bavaria.

The castle itself has medieval origins dating back to the 12th and 13th centuries and later gained its distinctive Renaissance appearance, while today it combines historical architecture, a museum, and a renowned falconry center. The Falkenhof is best known for its live bird-of-prey demonstrations, where visitors can observe eagles, falcons, owls, vultures, and other raptors in free flight while learning about their behavior, conservation, and the centuries-old tradition of falconry. 

Falconry has been recognized by UNESCO as Intangible Cultural Heritage, and the center is actively involved in education and species conservation. Set high above the Altmühl Valley, the site offers impressive views, historic castle surroundings, and an engaging wildlife experience. Its combination of medieval history, falconry heritage, and family-friendly presentations makes it one of the most visited attractions in the Riedenburg area.
