Königstein Fortress ensures that people with a Handicap will enjoy their stay by providing:
- free parking at the entrance of the fortress (with a pass)
- a concessionary admission price and free admission for one accompanying person
- free admission for an accompanying dog or a guide dog for the blind
- easy access with a lift
- a 1.7 km tour along the outer wall with mostly sufficient room to move and many viewpoints
- signposted routes for wheelchair users
- most of the exhibitions are accessible without steps
- Audioguide in nine languages (German, English, French, Italian, Japanese, Polish, Russian, Spanish, Czech)
- toilets are also suitable for disabled people
We recommend that wheelchair users are accompanied by another person as the historic fortress architecture includes uneven routes and slopes. A tour map which includes an overview of routes which are difficult or unsuitable for wheelchairs is available (in German) especially for wheelchair users.
