The Emmerberg Castle ruins are located on a ridge near the Prosset Gorge and are among the historic fortresses of Lower Austria. First mentioned around 1170, they served as an important defensive point on what was then the northern border of the Carantanian March. Although they were never militarily tested, they were inhabited until 1760 before they began to decay – triggered by the sale of the roof structure. Although the ruins are now inaccessible for safety reasons, their imposing remains and picturesque location make them a fascinating sight.

The Starhemberg castle ruins, once a significant site north of Dreistetten, have an eventful history. Originally a Styrian fortress, it fell to the Babenbergs in 1192 and was expanded into a palace under Frederick the Quarrelsome. After his death, the Teutonic Order administered it for a short time before it passed into Habsburg ownership in 1278. In 1482, the castle was captured by King Matthias Corvinus. From 1590, it belonged to the Counts of Heussenstein for over 200 years and survived the Turkish onslaught in 1683. Around 1800, it was covered over to avoid taxes and has remained in ruins ever since. Today, it is owned by the Salvator Habsburg-Lothringen family. Officially, access is prohibited, but the imposing walls and the view make it a popular destination for hikers.

The castle, built in 1543 by Hans Freiherr von Weisspriach, was rebuilt in 1805 under the rule of Guldenstein. The castle, which is located in the middle of the village, received its current appearance in 1805. During its existence, the castle served mostly as a state youth home and since 1997 it has been owned by Reintegration Gemeinn. sozialtherapeutische Wohngemeinschaft GmbH (alcohol withdrawal clinic).
