    Between 1201 and 1208, Hadmar II of Kuenring had the castle town of Weitra built. The castle stood in the south, at the highest point of the sloping granite plateau. Since its foundation, Weitra had the central military, administrative, judicial and ecclesiastical function in the so-called "Districtus Witrensis", and the castle town was also a central market town and place of refuge in times of war.

      Weitra Castle is a renaissance castle in the Waldviertel that was created in the late 16th century through the reconstruction of a medieval castle. It is located in an elevated position south of the Weitra old town in the Lower Austrian district of Gmünd.
