    A castle with history... We were unable to see the exhibition this time due to time constraints, but we will of course do so later, but we enjoyed the castle and its aura. A beautiful place where you can enjoy the view.

      We also wanted to pay a visit to the oldest castle in Burgenland, which sits enthroned on the extinct volcanic cone. After the paths become very steep, the best way to do this is on foot. There would also be an elevator to get up easily.

      The castle can be seen from afar and so you have a wonderful view of the surrounding area from above. The inside of the complex and the castle museum can be visited from April to October for a fee. The restaurant's garden is particularly well designed.

        Güssing Castle sits majestically on an extinct volcanic cone and is absolutely worth seeing. It was built in 1157 as a weir and is thus the oldest castle in Burgenland. Fortress walls were erected in the 16th and 17th centuries to protect against attacks. With the loss of its strategic importance, Güssing Castle was abandoned in the 18th century, but after extensive renovations it is now as it was 200 years ago.
