Steeped in history, the castle almost fell into ruin, but Captain Ansell gave it away in 1981. The new owners then sold it in 1988 to the Wildmoser, Pichler and Schützeneder families, who then commissioned an extensive restoration. The building, which has been maintained again today, is inhabited privately.

A little change on the tour. Very nice section of the route. From the ferry you have a great view of the castle and the Danube. For those who usually only cycle over bridges, ferries are a very interesting thing. It's fun and brings joy!

The cable ferry is a unique attraction on the Danube. It connects the towns of Ottensheim and Wilhering and is particularly interesting for cyclists as it is a popular crossing on the Danube cycle path. The ferry is a so-called yaw cable ferry and moves solely with the current of the Danube. The cable ferry is a historical and technical jewel that combines tradition and innovation. It is not only a practical means of transport, but also a popular attraction for tourists and locals. The cable ferry not only connects the banks of the Danube geographically, but also the communities of Ottensheim and Wilhering culturally.
