The old water castle is currently being renovated and will become an Asian restaurant. (As of Oct.24)

Great view from the Schlossberg and an interesting history of the Schlossberg Chapel.

A romantic place with a view

From the small castle there is a nice descent to the Au monastery.

The Schloßberg with its chapel can be seen from afar. And when you are up there you have a great view. The story of the chapel is also very interesting. A landmark of Kraiburg.

Already visible from afar, the landmark of Kraiburg, the Schlossberg with its small St. Georg chapel, rises above the town. The chapel stands today in place of a demolished castle, which the Kraiburg counts - after the Wittelsbachers, the most respected aristocratic family in Bavaria - built on the strategically favorable mountain cone in the Middle Ages. An ascent to the Schlossberg is worthwhile for the delightful view of the Inn Valley alone. The somewhat steep ascent over the Floriansteig begins directly behind the St. Bartholomäus market church in Kraiburg. Those who want to take it easy can start at the market square in a south-westerly direction to the so-called “Kirschwegerl”. From there it goes slightly uphill on a crossroad to the Schlossberg. On the way you come across grazing sheep and goats. They are used for landscape maintenance as "natural lawnmowers" to keep trees and bushes growing short. There are also many valuable biotopes on the Schlossberg, which makes Kraiburg's landmark a special biological feature. The alluvial forests with their backwaters and the natural deciduous forests on the bank slopes, the lines that end at the Schlossberg, are among the last remnants of the "wild river landscape of the Inn" in Bavaria. That is why one of the 50 stamp stations of the ecotourism initiative "Naturatlas Bayern Arche" stands on the Kraiburger Schlossberg.

St. Georg was built as a pledge chapel in 1838 after a ship train loaded with grain threatened to crash at the bridge in Braunau. The shipmaster Georg Riedl then vowed to build a chapel in honor of his namesake in his place of birth Kraiburg on the Schlossberg if he was rescued.

Probably one of the most beautiful landmarks in Kraiburg. Visible from afar and with a beautiful story. Illuminated at night from the market church.
