The history of Falkenstein Castle is as old as the settlement of the Weinviertel itself. The castle was built under Emperor Henry III in the middle of the 11th century. As a border fortress to the north, it once protected the country from attacks from Bohemia and Hungary. The first lords of Falkenstein were vassals of the Babenbergs. Falkenstein Castle was a sovereign fief and pledge for centuries until it became private property in 1571. In 1645, the castle was conquered by the Swedes, but not destroyed. It did not begin to decay until the end of the 17th century. Source: www.burgruine-falkenstein.at/geschichte/

Poysbrunn Castle, now also known as the fairytale castle, is located in one of the most picturesque areas of the Weinviertel. It was first mentioned in a document in the 12th century as “Veste Bozesbrunn”. The castle was badly damaged during the Hungarian Wars. The reconstruction essentially gave it its current shape and its unique character. Mysterious cellar vaults are hidden behind the thick castle walls and narrow spiral staircases lead to ancient, creaking doors that take us into the fairytale world... The large castle park also lives up to all expectations. Centuries-old trees give the garden an idyllic, fairytale atmosphere. Every year wonderful weddings take place in the fairytale castle and the Autumn Magic, a handicraft market with great attention to detail, is also worth a visit.
