The castle dates back to the 12th century. It is enthroned on a rock that drops steeply to the Drau. Burghof and Söller (a dream view of the Karawanken) are freely accessible. The castle is owned by the Kyrle family, which also owns a large forest management company.

The castle was partially destroyed by the earthquake of 1348, but was immediately rebuilt. For the year 1349, Hollenburg is documented as the seat of a district judge.
