Nice little, very beautiful and very well preserved/restored ruin in the idyllic Waldviertel - ideal for a family trip. Absolutely recommended, as almost everything can be visited and there are few obstructions.

This is a very beautiful castle ruin in fairly good condition. Admission is free, but of course you can leave something in a donation box. From the parking lot it takes about 10 to 15 minutes depending on your pace. Sturdy shoes are recommended here. There is a lot to see in the ruins themselves. Almost nothing is blocked. You can also go up to both towers and enjoy the view from above. Everything is also child-friendly and dog owners have no problems here either. All in all, the ruins are worth seeing and I can only recommend a visit. 4 stars only because it is one of the smaller ruins.

They are the evocative ruins of an ancient castle, in an elevated position above the woods, perhaps dating back to the 12th century. The shape of the castle is particular, narrow and long. It was a fiefdom of the powerful Kuenringer, then of the Hoenzollern and subsequently of other local noble families. During the Thirty Years' War, it was used as a base for Swedish mercenaries, who started from the castle and plundered the region. Today, made safe, it can be visited for free from Easter to October. It can be easily reached from the car park. The view from the towers is beautiful.

A really very beautiful ruin. Very well preserved and restored. A great place to be alone and switch off from everyday life
