A one night stop over on a business trip. Lovely setting, really attentive staff, and very relaxing surroundings. We had an early breakfast as our flight was early, but a full menu was available. The food was excellent, and we left set up for the day.

Beautiful castle hotel goes back to the year 1630. The former castle goes back much further than the recent. Service is excellent, food and wine good as you would expect. The weather was kind so we could also enjoy a drink in the gardens well worth a visit to enjoy some relaxing days here.

Walls of Constantinople

The Walls of Constantinople are a series of defensive stone walls that have surrounded and protected the city of Constantinople (today Istanbul) since its founding as the new capital of the Roman Empire by Constantine the Great. With numerous additions and modifications during their history, they were the last great fortification system of antiquity, and one of the most complex and elaborate systems ever built. They were also the largest and strongest fortification in both the ancient and medieval world.

Initially built by Constantine the Great, the walls surrounded the new city on all sides, protecting it against attack from both sea and land. As the city grew, the famous double line of the Theodosian Walls was built in the 5th century. Although the other sections of the walls were less elaborate, they were, when well-manned, almost impregnable for any medieval besieger.
