      Fascinating castle complex - first mentioned in documents in 1160.
      From the tower you can enjoy a fantastic panoramic view of the Mühlviertel and the castle complex.
      The castle complex can also be walked around the outside.
      One-hour tours can be booked from Mr Markus Koller (0)664/214 31 64

        The Ruttenstein castle ruins are the ruins of a hilltop castle and are located near Pierbach. The facility extends on a wooded mountain cone at a height of 758 meters above the valley of the Große Naarn. Definitely worth a visit!
