Mariastein Youth Hostel

At the Höhenburg Mariastein, even adults can’t help but rediscover their inner child. Behind metre-thick walls, you get to pretend you are medieval heroes as you dine in front of an open fire in the knights’ hall and sleep in the tower room. Climb the ridge of the Blauen mountain and seize the castle courtyard from your enemies! En garde!

Situated on a steep ridge, Mariastein Castle towers above the pilgrimage site of the same name and offers an unobstructed view of verdant hills and forests. Watching the sun set from the castle walls is a truly unforgettable experience. You can also enjoy some memorable trips such as a medieval excursion to the ruins of Landskron, a trip to the Mariastein Monastery or a castle hike through the Leimen Valley.
