Originally fortified with a wide moat, the fortified complex was a strategically important border fortress against the constant threat from the east. The castle became state property and has been owned by the market town of Burgau since 1871. In recent years, the castle, the inner courtyard, and the outer bailey with its round tower have been restored. The round tower houses the municipal office and a castle café; the outer bailey contains apartments; the cellar of the main castle features a beautiful brick vault and is used for various club events. The ballroom on the second floor and the inner courtyard with its arcaded vault are used for a variety of cultural events, including weddings and conferences.

I love this castle! I am happy that it can be visited freely and there is less interference from posterity than in the case of other larger castles in the area. ... there will be good summer programs for sure and I will also award the creative exhibition... Wheelbarrows!😄👍

Güssing Castle is the oldest castle in Burgenland; it was built on an extinct volcano. Unfortunately, cycling is prohibited within the wall, so there is a “bicycle parking lot” to the right in front of the entrance.

Big castle tower as for a small village. Burgau had good history with market rights not being a city itself.

Castle Neudau The original moated castle consists of the outer bailey with a mighty round tower, the gate wing and the south wing, the three-storey residential castle (closed four-wing building around an inner courtyard) and the east wing with the chapel and the entrance. The castle, first mentioned in 1371, dates in its present form from the late 19th century (in the style of the second baroque). Parts of the interior with remarkable ovens from the 17th and 18th centuries have been preserved. In the park there is a small theater building from the early 18th century. The owners of the castle were the Neubers, from 1500 the Polheim, 1571 - 1706 the Rottal family. Today's owner Franz Karl Kottulinsky. The castle is very well preserved. Neudau received its current facade about 130 years ago.

The fortified complex, originally fortified with a wide moat, was a strategically extremely important border fortress against the ongoing threat from the east. While there are no sources that refer to the rule of Burgau until the 12th century, the former moated castle "Burg in der Au" is named. In the 19th century the castle passed into state ownership from the Hungarian noble family Batthyány and finally in 1871 to the market town of Burgau. In recent years, the main building, the inner courtyard and the outer bailey with its distinctive round tower have been restored. In the course of the renovation work, a spiral staircase that had been missing for years was discovered behind vaulted arches. The once buried moat on the west side of the castle has been completing the impressive overall ensemble since 1998. The round tower houses the municipal office and a castle café, in the outer bailey there are apartments. The basement of the main castle with its beautiful brick vault, the magnificent ballroom and the inner courtyard with the arcade vault are used for cultural events, weddings and congresses as well as for the Christmas and Easter exhibitions.

An imposing castle that can be reached with a self-service elevator. Nice view and good restaurant with terrace.

The oldest castle in Burgenland, built in 1157 as a fortification, sits enthroned on a long-extinct volcanic cone. After several changes of ownership, it came into the possession of the Battyány family in 1524. To ward off dangers from the east, it was expanded into a brick-walled fortress in the 16th and 17th centuries. With the loss of its strategic importance, the castle was abandoned to decay in the 18th century, as the "roof tax" of that time made maintenance unaffordable for the owner. It has been owned by a foundation since 1870. After extensive restoration work, the castle is now in the same condition as it was 200 years ago.
