A journey of time with the "Red Arrow-Coach" on rail, back to the Middle - ages!
The "Knights" will be collected by a noble 20-th century legendary "Red Arrow-Coach". During the journey into the past, we shall be pleased to serve the guests a small aperitive. On arrival, the guests will then take 20 minutes to reach the 19-th century Arenenberg Castle by foot (which was the most important way of travel at this time). Those who prefer a more comfortable way of travel, can be collected by a modern coach (bus) and driven directly to the earlier home of Napoleon 3rd. During a guided one hour tour of the exclusively furnished rooms, you will discover a great deal about this "Blue blodded Royal Family". According to your wishes, we shall return either by foot and torch-light, or by modern coach to our historic vehicle of the 20-th century. On the short transfer, the "Red Arrow-Coach" will take the time machine back into the 15-th century. In the "Ritterstube" (Hall of the Knights) of the historic building from the year 1214 a.c., a "Ritterschmaus" (a delicious nobleman's meal) will be served to esquires, Knights or Kings and Queens. After the meal, the "Red Arrow-Coach" will bring its guests back into civilisation.
