Note:
Faber-Castell is celebrating its 250th anniversary this year, so the tours are proving popular. Please understand if the date and time you request is already booked. You can book up to six months ahead: we’ll confirm the booking straight away. Further notes If desired, lunch will be available in the castle cafeteria (between 1:00 p.m. and 2:00 p.m.). Our tours usually end up at the Faber-Castell shop in the former gardener’s cottage, where participants will get a 15% discount. Please bear in mind that our tours are in historic buildings that are not generally suitable for disabled persons (e.g. steep and narrow stairs in the museum). Participants must expect quite a lot of walking!
