Beautiful views over the vineyards and interesting wine cellars.

The Peace Stupa in Wagram near Feuersbrunn is one of the largest Buddhist peace monuments in Europe. Built between 2016 and 2019 according to the design of Austrian architect Matthias Rainer, it reaches a height of 32.5 meters and a diameter of approximately 30 meters. Particularly noteworthy is the accessible interior, designed as a space for meditation and encounters. The ceremonial inauguration took place on June 4, 2023. Construction was privately financed through the Stupa Institute of the Austrian Buddhist Religious Society and carried out under the spiritual guidance of monk Bop Jon Sunim, who had previously been involved in the Hungarian Peace Stupa in Zalaszántó. Inside the stupa are relics of the historical Buddha Shakyamuni, presented by the Dalai Lama, while a gilded Buddha statue weighing approximately 700 kilograms sits atop it. A large peace bell and the surrounding garden with meditation paths, sculptures, and prayer flags invite spiritual contemplation. The stupa symbolizes peace, compassion, and religious tolerance and is open to all people regardless of their faith.

Grafenegg Castle lies a few kilometers west of Grafenwörth and is one of Lower Austria's most impressive castles. Originally built as a fortification in the Middle Ages, the castle was remodeled in the 19th century in the Historicist style with Neo-Gothic and Romantic elements. The richly decorated facades, towers, and oriels are particularly striking, giving the building its fairytale appearance. The expansive castle park was laid out in the 19th century as an English landscape garden. Ancient trees, expansive meadows, and artfully designed vistas create a harmonious blend of nature and architecture. Numerous sculptures and pavilions complete the picture. In summer, the park transforms into a grand stage: With the open-air Wolkenturm stage and the auditorium, Grafenegg is now an internationally renowned venue for classical music. A bike trip to Grafenegg Castle is worthwhile not only for the impressive architecture but also for the tranquil paths through the park. Here, art, history and nature can be enjoyed in a unique atmosphere – a place where culture and landscape merge into a special experience.

Wonderful castle with impressive grounds.

Grafenegg Castle is an architectural gem of Romantic historicism with roots in the 15th century. Surrounded by a 32-hectare castle park and known for the international Grafenegg Music Festival, the ensemble combines culture, history, and nature. For cyclists, the castle offers a charming stopover on a tour through the Weinviertel region—with the opportunity to stroll, relax, or attend a concert.

The Peace Stupa at Wagram, also known as the Grafenwörth Stupa, is an impressive Buddhist peace monument in Lower Austria. It is located on a hill near Feuersbrunn in the Tulln district and was built between 2016 and 2019. The official inauguration took place on June 4, 2023. Designed by the Austrian architect Matthias Rainer, the stupa is one of the largest Buddhist stupas in Europe, with a height of 32.5 meters and a diameter of approximately 30 meters. Of particular note is the accessible interior, designed as a place for meditation and encounters – a truly unique feature of this size. The project was privately funded by the Stupa Institute of the Austrian Buddhist Religious Society, under the spiritual guidance of the Buddhist monk Bop Jon Sunim (Tenzin Tharchin), who also contributed to the Peace Stupa in Zalaszántó, Hungary. However, the construction was not without controversy, as it encroached on an ecologically sensitive area with nesting sites for the hoopoe, which led to protests and delays. Inside the stupa are relics of the historical Buddha Shakyamuni, presented by His Holiness the Dalai Lama. At the top is a gilded Buddha statue weighing approximately 700 kilograms, donated from South Korea. A large peace bell is also part of the inventory. The surrounding garden is designed as a place of peace and spiritual contemplation, with meditation paths, sculptures, and prayer flags. The stupa symbolizes peace, compassion, and tolerance and is open to people of all faiths who seek peace and encounter here.
