Johann I von Liechtenstein had artificial ruins built in the Mödling area at the beginning of the 19th century. This was highly contemporary and intended as a landscape building project.

Artificial ruins: In the second half of the 18th century, people turned away from the rational baroque park, which was now considered boring, and towards the emotional landscape park. With the introduction of free garden design, not only "dramatic" elements such as artificial grottos, waterfalls and devil's bridges were built, but also ancient buildings (castles, towers, temples, also aqueducts) in various stages of decay were (re)built. This should create a painterly effect and a landscape atmosphere.

A little hidden, but not less worth seeing
