    The castle is privately owned and is still inhabited by the Schönborn-Buchheim family.

    Story:
    First mentioned in a document in 1204, Weyerburg was elevated to market status in the mid-14th century. The village originally lay south of the recent settlement, but this earlier settlement fell into disrepair in the 15th century.
    The castle in Weyerburg, formerly a castle, was in changing ownership, since 1714 it has belonged to the Schönborn family, after the then Reich Vice-Chancellor, Count Friedrich Karl von Schönborn-Puchheim, who later became Prince-Bishop, took over the lordship of Weyerburg along with other associated villages from the Count Johann Dominik von Hochburg bought it to supplement his dominion in Göllersdorf, which he had acquired in 1710, where he had Schönborn Castle built in 1712–1717. At the beginning of the 20th century, the construction of the Stockerau - Joslowitz railway line was planned in the municipal area, on which a station was planned in Weyerburg. In 1945 the castle was severely damaged by the war and only restored years later.

      Beautiful castle, which is privately owned. Therefore, a visit is not possible and you can only take photos from the outside.
