Rehearsals & Residence
...within historic walls
Part of the mission of the Schloss Kapfenburg Foundation is to promote (inter)cultural and musical youth education in Baden-Württemberg. The main target group are the music schools in the state, which find ideal rehearsal conditions at Schloss Kapfenburg.
In addition to music schools, the castle also offers recreational and professional musicians, national and international ensembles, orchestras and choirs from schools, clubs and associations a unique infrastructure for intensive work phases.
Rehearsal guests also have the opportunity to book exercise programmes.
Rehearsal rooms and equipment
At Kapfenburg Castle, numerous rooms of various sizes are available for your rehearsal stay. There are eight rehearsal rooms with up to 174 square metres in the high castle. Our 300 square metre concert hall offers enough space even for large orchestras, and the building wing also has two smaller rehearsal rooms.
All rehearsal rooms are equipped with a piano. Chairs and music stands are also available in sufficient numbers. Rental instruments can be booked by appointment.
Room use is included in the price for rehearsal stays.
