Apple cultivation at Schloss Dyck has a long tradition. Formerly established to supply the extensive castle grounds, apple cultivation was increasingly expanded into a commercial enterprise and has been serving its customers from near and far with delicious apples for over 50 years. With the State Garden Show, a new and functional building was created at the entrance to Schloss Dyck, directly adjacent to a large car park. From here you can reach the park and the castle. A wide range of fresh pome, stone, and berry fruits from "next door", directly from the producer, can be found in our farm shop. In addition to apples, we offer pears, sweet cherries, plums, damsons, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, asparagus, potatoes, apple juice, apple cider, apple chips, Rhenish kraut, jams, purees, honey, currant wine, currant secco, and much more. https://www.stiftung-schloss-dyck.de/shops/obstverkauf-schloss-dyck.html
