One month a year celebration

Can you imagine having a house where you only live one month a year? So in this castle that was the case!

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!

Do you want to know more about the (too) crazy guests and their sleepovers at the castle? Are you curious about where they slept and what they had for breakfast? Do you want 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!
