Everyone is of course free to form their own opinion...

07/29/2022 - The Waxenberg castle ruins are particularly worth seeing and can be easily reached via a short climb. From the tower you have a wonderful view over the Mühlviertel and far beyond. On the area of the ruin, which is very well maintained and secured, many benches and loungers invite you to take a rest. Here you can look over the country and let your soul dangle.

The Waxenberg castle ruins are the ruins of a hilltop castle above the center of Waxenberg in the municipality of Oberneukirchen in the Mühlviertel in Upper Austria. The current ruins were built before 1300 and burned down in 1756 after a lightning strike. The ruin is owned by the Starhemberg family and has been renovated by the Waxenberg cultural association since the 1950s
