    The romantic castle ruins from the 11th century stand proudly above the wine-growing town of Falkenstein in the Weinviertel. The once mighty castle complex is now one of the most popular tourist destinations in the north-eastern Weinviertel. The old walls invite you to explore and offer a fantastic view.

    It's not true that this castle can only be visited on Saturdays.
    The Falkenstein Castle ruins are open daily from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. from April 1 to November 2.

    Visits only on Saturdays. Nevertheless, it is also worth going up another day. There is a nice view and a bench where you can relax and sit in the sun, if it shines!
