A castle at this point was already mentioned in the middle of the 14th century. It was rebuilt by the Lords of Walsee in the 15th century after they had lost their ancestral castle. In the early 16th century, the Steinberg family took over the fortifications and converted them into the castle that still stands today. However, today's neo-baroque facade with the spire stems from a modernization in 1888/89.

Strannersdorf Castle is surrounded by a long wall, which also encloses the associated large manor, which is no longer used today, and the other outbuildings and the extensive park.

The Reich-Rohrwig family came into possession of Strannersdorf through inheritance. The well-kept property is also currently used by her for residential purposes and can therefore only be viewed from the outside.

Strannersdorf Castle is located west of Mank in the Mostviertel region. A castle was first mentioned on this site in the mid-14th century. In the 15th century, the Lords of Walsee built a new fortress on the site after losing their ancestral castle. At the beginning of the 16th century, the Steinberger family took over the fortifications and transformed them into the castle it houses today. The striking neo-Baroque façade with its characteristic spire was created during extensive modernization in 1888/89.
