Nestled in the picturesque landscape of Southern Estonia, Sangaste Castle stands as a beacon of cultural and historical allure. It's one of the 21 must-see spots in the region highlighted by the iconic yellow National Geographic window. If you're a history buff or culture enthusiast, this place should be on your bucket list.

Inspired by the grandeur of England's Windsor Castle, Sangaste Castle and its surrounding park are a feast for the eyes. The stunning architecture and rich history make it an ideal setting for grand weddings, family reunions, or even a unique overnight stay where you can feel like royalty. And when it comes to dining, the castle's restaurant offers a delightful taste of local flavors, including authentic rye vodka crafted from Sangaste rye.

Beyond the castle's walls, you'll find more to explore: stables, a dairy, a barn, a water tower, and an arboretum, all open to visitors. Each element adds its own charm and story, painting a vivid picture of life as it once was. Did you know that the arboretum is home to a diverse collection of trees from around the world? It's a living gallery that nature lovers will find particularly enchanting. So, whether you're wandering through the lush greenery or sipping on a glass of rye vodka, Sangaste Castle promises an unforgettable experience.
