We say THANK YOU ...

On 15 July 2020 we opened Heinfels Castle. In this short and very challenging season, we were nevertheless able to welcome 5508 visitors in 659 guided tours until October 26 due to the worldwide pandemic with many travel restrictions!

The entire team of Burg Heinfels would like to thank everyone who visited the "Queen of the Puster Valley" and we are happy about the many positive feedbacks. With motivation we are already working on new things for the next season. In any case we will keep you up to date on what is planned at Burg Heinfels.

THANK YOU ... AND STAY HEALTHY!
