After the steep climb up from the Ybbstal valley, you can enjoy the view of the Sonntagberg and Ybbstal valley as well as the view to the north over the Mostviertel region between Haag and Amstetten.

Waidhofen is always worth a stay

The castle houses a local history museum and Ernst Urschitz's historical weapons collection with over 400 exhibits in the castle tower. The 23 m high tower also serves as a viewing tower with a panoramic view of the Mostviertel.

A worthwhile destination for a tour or a detour beyond the main route. A pretty, tranquil town with some sights. You can linger a while in this place, there is a lot to discover! It's worth it!

The Gleiß castle ruins are a hilltop castle, first documented mention in 993. In 1806, the then well-preserved castle was burned down by the French during the Second Napoleonic War, after which it was not rebuilt and left to decay.

The city has a lower and upper market, beautiful town houses and cafes. A popular weekly market takes place on Tuesday and Friday mornings.

With its Gothic chapel, columned hall and defense tower, Ulmerfeld Castle is a jewel of medieval architecture. In summer, concerts and theater performances take place in the romantic arcaded courtyard. The west wing shows the cultural side of the palace. Exhibitions and a historical weapon collection of the armourer Ernst Urschitz are shown there.
