The castle on the slope of the Hiesberg was first mentioned in 1100 in connection with a Wernher von Zelking. Wernher von Zelking's origins are unclear. A relationship with the noble family of the Lords of Haguenau is not proven, nor is it that he was the son of Reginbert (III.) of Haguenau, as is usually assumed in research. He was married and the father of Ulrich (I.) von Zelking.[1] The Lords of Zelking died out in 1634. The festival passed through marriage to the Polheim family in Wartenburg and around 1662 to Andrä Joachim Graf Sinzendorf.[2] When the Turks besieged Vienna in 1683 and their patrols advanced far into western Lower Austria, the still well-fortified castle served as a place of refuge for the surrounding civilian population.[2] After the manorial administration was relocated to nearby Matzleinsdorf, the fortress was abandoned. In 1802 Franziska Countess Kinsky, a widowed Countess Sinzendorf, married Count Harrach for the second time. Later owners included the Counts of Rohrau and the Galgozy-Galantha family. Today the ruins only consist of stonework from the 12th to 16th centuries. However, you can still see the massive arched gate and some notched windows.

It is very interesting to watch the ships in the lock from the bridge. It takes a while, but the opportunity is good. The lock operation is fascinating to watch. Here you can watch how large cargo ships and river cruise ships pass through the lock and overcome the difference in height of the Danube. The Ybbs-Persenbeug power station is not only the oldest Danube power station in Austria, but also one of the most impressive technical structures along the Danube. Together with the lock system, it is an important landmark for the region and a popular destination for bicycle tours and technology enthusiasts. The power station was built between 1954 and 1959 and was the first Danube power station in Austria. There is a visitor center that offers insights into how the power station works and its history. The power station is located directly on the Danube cycle path, which runs along both banks. The stretch between Ybbs and Persenbeug is particularly attractive, offering a mixture of nature and technology along the Danube.
