Dragon magic at Waldburg Castle

Kites of all sizes are taking over the Waldburg. ### Kite Magic at the Waldburg **Days of Kite Power** Fri, May 1, 2026, and Sun, May 3, 2026; Aug 2, 2026; Aug 16, 2026; September 13, 2026, 10 a.m. – 6 p.m. each day. The Dragon Days are a completely new event format at the Waldburg Museum. Dragons are an integral part of medieval mythology. Many dragons still adorn coats of arms today. Siegfried’s battle against the dragon is a prime example of this dragon mystique. Incidentally, the oldest surviving version of the Siegfried saga was discovered at Haus Waldburg. Waldburg Zeil Hohenems owns this book, which is currently on display in Worms. Reason enough for us to celebrate dragons with a fantastic children’s dragon festival at the Waldburg. **Dragon Day Program:** 10:00 a.m. Brunhilde the Dragon greets the children at the castle gate 10:30 a.m. Cannon smoke wafts around the castle 11:00 a.m. Experience history: Guided tour for children & guided tour for adults 11:30 a.m. Sword fight with the dragon, demonstration by the "Feather and Sword" group 12:00 p.m. Caro with a reptile show or a magic show 12:30 p.m. Adventures with Kasperle and Friends 1:00 p.m. Draco, the Waldburg Dragon, enchants visitors 1:30 p.m. Beat the cute dragon Pianta—join in the fun Starting at 1:30 p.m. Book printing as it was 600 years ago — Facebook in the Middle Ages 2:00 PM Experience history: Guided tours for children & adults 2:30 PM Beat the cute dragon Pianta (hands-on activity) 3:00 PM Sword fight with the dragon, demonstration group "Feather and Sword" 3:30 PM Caro with reptile show or magic show, or cannon shot 4:00 PM Experience history: Guided tours for children & adults 5:00 PM Balloon swords to take home 5:30 PM Wine tasting, Aufricht – the winery presses grapes for Schloss Waldburg Please note that the reptile show can only take place if the temperature is at least 25 degrees. As an alternative program, we may offer a magic show. But the best part, just like at an amusement park, is an “all-inclusive price” for the whole day. Admission, tours, and the program. A day’s program that promises lots of fun. **Oh, and Crux the Dragon Knight will take the stage at Waldburg for the first time on May 1. Our Crux the Dragon Knight is a sensational new photo opportunity.**
