A Place that Breathes History

Wernsdorf Castle is located in Wernsdorf near Strullendorf, about eight kilometers from the UNESCO World Heritage site of Bamberg. The concert venue is closely associated with the Capella Antiqua Bambergensis; the address of the castle is Zur Schleifmühle 4, 96129 Strullendorf. For visitors, the place is primarily a cultural castle with a historical aura, but the official accessibility information is clear: not wheelchair accessible.

Music Between the Middle Ages, Sun, and Sound Colors

The Capella Antiqua Bambergensis works with more than 50 historical musical instruments and has earned a firm place in the scene with programs on medieval music. For the summer series, the ensemble promises a musical journey to the sunny south of Europe, propelled by virtuosic early music and a richly detailed orchestration based on historical sound colors.
