рддреНрд╡рд░рд┐рдд рддрдереНрдп: Visitors notice a labyrinth of narrow staircases and sudden lookout windows that make every turn feel like a stage set, with light slanting through arrow-slit openings. A surprising number of rooms, more than 50, hold collections of armor, carved furniture, and worn floorboards that creak underfoot and smell faintly of pine and wax.
рдореБрдЦреНрдп рдЖрдХрд░реНрд╖рдг: A nearly hidden passage barely 80 cm wide leads up to a tiny turret room where the air is warm, wood-scented, and the view through a narrow slit seems squeezed into a postcard. Guides point to a handwritten guest ledger signed by over 200 visitors from the early 20th century, the faded blue ink and careful loops making each name feel like a rumor passed down the stairs.
