Beautiful castle, during the day there is the possibility to visit the castle, closed in winter. All around a great view of the mountains.

The Plainburg can be hiked on a short ascent and offers a beautiful view.
Pay attention to opening times, otherwise you will find yourself in front of a locked gate.

The remains of the Plainburg! Walls 5 meters high and one and a half meters thick surround the inner courtyard and give the ruins the shape of an open box, which is why the Plainburg is popularly called “Salzbüchsl”.
