Tips

Cycling

Kreuzenstein Castle rises impressively above Leobendorf on a hill in the Rohrwald forest. The location was strategically important due to its elevated position, at 266 m above sea level and approximately 100 m above the Danube. The castle was reconstructed in the 19th century on the ruins of an earlier castle and houses a large collection of historical weapons, furniture, and works of art.

Today, it is perfect for panoramic views of the region and is a popular tourist attraction with a medieval flair. A very beautiful sight and also a worthwhile destination for a bike ride.

Hiking

From the plain between Korneuburg and Leobendorf the view wanders to Kreuzenstein Castle in the distance. The historicizing Schauburg was built between 1874 and 1906 on the site of a medieval hilltop castle. The polar explorer and art collector Count Johann Nepomuk Wilczek had it built as a museum for his art collections.
