Hostel Castle Wernfels

Spalt, Germany, Germany

Hostel Castle Wernfels is a medieval hilltop castle in the town of Spalt, Bavaria, that has been transformed into a unique youth hostel. Originally built in the second half of the 13th century, the castle later served as an administrative center for the Prince-Bishops of Eichstätt and remained an important regional landmark for centuries. After passing through various owners, the castle was acquired in the 20th century by the Bavarian YMCA (CVJM) and adapted for educational, recreational, and youth programs. Its historic architecture has been carefully preserved while being modernized to accommodate guests. Today, Hostel Castle Wernfels is one of Germany’s most distinctive youth hostels, offering accommodation in a genuine medieval castle setting. Surrounded by the scenic Franconian Lake District, it welcomes families, school groups, and travelers, combining history, outdoor activities, and modern facilities, including a heated outdoor pool.
