The booking went quickly and smoothly. Admission without any waiting time! Great audio guide. There were no long queues in the palace, no crowds. We were able to see everything in peace and quiet. A beautiful palace that you absolutely have to see! Highly recommended!View original review in German

The visit to the Palace was very nice, but there were difficulties with the voucher, which was not sent to me by e-mail or whatsApp. However, as I had the booking confirmation, a very nice palace official at the entrance helped me to get the QR code to gain access.View original review in German
