They are the oldest traceable dynasty in Europe: the Guelphs. In the holiday destination of Niedersachsen the descendants of Henry the Lion left behind a lot of trails and there are many venues, at which the exciting and chequered past of the high nobility can be remembered. The family history of the Guelphs of more than a thousand years puts all other dynasties in the shade.
The close connection to the English royal family ensured that the princes of Hannover and the dukes of Braunschweig had a considerable influence on European dynamics. Whether Marienburg Castle or the Royal Gardens of Herrenhausen – the Guelphs have left behind many extraordinary culture gems, which will impress you on a thrilling royal journey of discovery!
