グーテンシュタインの洞窟・トップ5

1182年、シュタイアーマルク辺境伯オトカー4世（オットーカルとも）の証書には、「Chalhoch de Stratensteine」が、父が寄進したゼッカウ修道院の自由を承認したことが記されています。2年後、その息子「Ortolf」も証書に登場します。どちらの名前もシュラッテンシュタイン家の特徴です。

1278年のマルトフェルトの戦いの後、城はハプスブルク家の所有となった。1482年にはハンガリー王マティアス・コルヴィヌスが城を征服した。1683年には、城が周辺住民にトルコ人からの避難場所を提供した。

After centuries of decay, the ruins were painstakingly restored thanks to the dedication of Dr. Karl Leitner and today shine in their historic splendor. On the grounds, you'll find remnants of walls, towers with viewing platforms, and insights into the lives of former lords. Further information and fascinating background information on the castle's history can be found on the website of the Friends of Losenheim Castle Ruins Association: http://burgruine-losenheim.at/.

The Schrattenstein is a wooded mountain near Würflach, crowned by the romantic Schrattenstein ruins. From the summit and around the ruins, there are always magnificent views of the surrounding area and the Hohe Wand mountain. The castle ruins are freely accessible and lend the place a special, historic atmosphere. A worthwhile destination for a leisurely hike – especially beautiful in combination with the Johannesbach Gorge or the Andreassteig Trail.

The Schrattenstein Castle ruins sit perched on a rocky outcrop above the valley and offer magnificent views over the surrounding hills as far as the Hohe Wand mountain. The remains of the former hilltop castle are now freely accessible and invite exploration – with ancient walls, weathered stones, and a special, almost mystical atmosphere. A worthwhile detour for hikers who appreciate history and views in equal measure. It's particularly beautiful at sunset or as the destination for a circular hike through the Johannesbach Gorge or from the Andreassteig Trail.

The ruin has seen a lot, especially in 1683

It is privately owned and can therefore only be viewed from the outside.
