グラーフェンヴェルトでののおすすめグラベルライド

Rossatzのサイクリングロードは非常に牧歌的ですが、夏の間は自転車の交通量が多いです。ここでは間違いなくスピードを出すのではなく、ゆっくりと転がりながら楽しむのがおすすめです！

ゴットヴァイク修道院はしばしば「オーストリアのモンテカッシーノ」と呼ばれますが、その前に立つと、その理由がすぐにわかります。クレムスとマウテルンの真向かい、ヴァッハウの東端にある標高422メートルの丘の上に荘厳にそびえ立っています。今日私たちが目にする修道院は、1718年の壊滅的な火災後の巨大な再建の結果です。有名な建築家ヨハン・ルーカス・フォン・ヒルデブラント（ウィーンのベルヴェデーレ宮殿も設計）は、巨大な城のような複合施設を計画しました。しかし、資金不足のため、当初の計画の約3分の2しか完成しませんでしたが、それによって複合施設の印象が薄れることはありません。

Beautiful views over the vineyards and interesting wine cellars.

Especially in autumn, the abundance of juicy apples makes our hearts sing – and in the next town, they're even sold at self-service shops and are definitely worth enjoying! 🍎🍏

A beautiful scene; if you're traveling on the other side, a detour to the ruins is definitely worthwhile 👍

A very beautiful piece of nature, which can be visited at any time of year.

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.
