Wow! That's exactly how I imagine a castle. I was lucky enough to take part in a night tour in the summer, where you walk through the dark rooms of the castle with just a flashlight and a guide. A spiral staircase leads up to the two balconies and the castle tower. From there you have a fantastic view that stretches all the way to Vienna. Liechtenstein Castle, which stands in Maria Enzersdorf, was originally used to ward off enemies. Today it towers idyllically in harmony with its surroundings. A must-see!

The current castle complex was completely renovated by the House of Liechtenstein in the 19th century and is still owned by them today, as a temporary family museum. The castle thus also represents 900 years of family history. With over 60% Romanesque building material, the princely ancestral castle is one of the few Romanesque secular buildings that have been preserved.

Location description

Liechtenstein Castle is located south of Maria

Enzersdorf on the edge of the former

Liechtenstein Landscape Park about

300 m above sea level on the edge of the Vienna Woods in the

Föhrenberge Nature Park, about 75 meters above the center of Maria Enzersdorf. It is built on an extremely narrow rock ridge north of the Kalenderberg, which runs east-west and consists of dark (but light weathering) Gutenstein limestone, Reichenhall Rauhwacke and Steinalm limestone.

At the southern foot of the castle hill, in a Baden conglomerate gully on the northeast edge of the Gaaden Basin, stands Liechtenstein Castle, which was built at a later date.
