そこを自転車でハダースフェルトに曲がると、急な登り坂の城への素晴らしい眺めが得られます。

From this vantage point, there is a sweeping view of Greifenstein Castle, which sits elevated above the Danube backwater and dominates the landscape. The castle forms a striking historical landmark within the surrounding countryside and is clearly visible from the cycle path. Greifenstein Castle is a medieval hilltop castle in Lower Austria. It was probably built in the 11th century and was first documented in 1135. Over the course of its history, it has served various functions, including as part of the defensive system along the Danube and, at times, as a prison for the ecclesiastical court.

Nice place to jump into the water, well paved, but very narrow in places. Drive carefully!

nice to drive, - luckily the weather wasn't so good, so we got through.

Here you have a great view

Where Neuaigen Castle is today, there was already a fortified complex that was probably built by Laurenz Freiherr von Hofkirchen. Hofkirchen was enfeoffed in 1494 by the Roman-German King Maximilian I. After the destruction in the Thirty Years' War, Georg Andre Freiherr von Hofkirchen (1562-1623) erected a new building.

The impressive Kreuzenstein Castle is enthroned on a 260m high elevation above the Danube and can be seen from afar. It is a jewel for all fans of the Middle Ages, castle lovers and romantics who want to be transported back in time with the help of a fully furnished castle. The visit is only possible as part of a guided tour. Guided tours take place on the hour and last between 45 and 60 minutes, depending on the size of the group. Special children's tours are carried out for school classes by prior arrangement.

Ideal for a break including cooling off
