Kälberhart Castle was first documented in 1389 and belonged to Hertel Kälberharter at the time. According to legend, he was ennobled by Friedrich von Walser for his charitable care of the poor and sick and was allowed to use a calf's head in his coat of arms. This is said to have contributed to the name of the nearby village of Fleischessen. The present castle dates from the second half of the 16th century. It is a two-story, rectangular building with a hipped roof and cylindrical corner turrets. Originally, it was surrounded by a moat, of which only a small pond remains. Over the centuries, the castle changed hands several times and fell into disrepair at times. Today, it is picturesquely situated in the Mostviertel region and is a popular destination for cyclists.

During World War II, it served as a military hospital and then as the commandant's office for the Russian occupation. In 1975, the state of Lower Austria bought the castle building.

Privately owned and therefore unfortunately can only be viewed from the outside. Story: The place was first mentioned around 1074 by the Hochfrei Adalbert von Kilb. In the 12th century, the rule came to Rudolf von Perg. Friedrich von Perg was inherited by the Babenberg Duke Leopold V in 1191. In the 13th century, a knightly family again named itself after Kilb. In 1410 a knight from “Sebeck” was named as the owner. In 1460, Jörg von Pottendorf sold his castle in Kilb to Bernhard von Tiernstein, who built an extensive new building and, ten years later, bequeathed it to the brothers Rüdiger and Jörg von Starhemberg, but also promised the defense construction to his grandson Georg von Velderndorf. The latter probably received it, because in 1521 Hans Velderndorfer sold the fortress to Göttweig Abbey. The castle was now called Grünbühel. He bought it back in 1534, but finally sold it to Jakob Gienger in 1549. Jacob's son Nikolaus had the old fortified building converted into a more comfortable Renaissance castle. As a result, the owners usually changed quite quickly. Around the middle of the 17th century, the Barons Ruess von Ruessenstein came into possession of the castle. Only the barons and later Counts of Wickenburg owned Grünbühel for a longer period from 1720 onwards. In 1830, Karl Theodor Graf Wickenburg had major construction work carried out, which gave the building its current appearance. In 1845 the castle came into rapidly changing bourgeois ownership. From 1969 to 2004 it belonged to the Friedel-Klarenberg family. Since then, Dr. Georg Graf Pachta-Reyhofen, lord of the castle at Grünbühel.

The name of the castle is probably derived from the Kelberharder family, who came into possession of what was then the moated castle around 1329. The Kelberharders moved to Strannersdorf and Grafenwörth before 1384. Afterwards, the Steinberger family temporarily named themselves after Kälberhart. A Hertel Kälberharter is mentioned in 1389. The Steinbergers lost the residence to Hans Grill in 1420, but soon regained it. In 1470 Jörg Seusenegker sold Kälberhart to Wenzel Stainberger. The small castle was already considered derelict in 1534 and in 1548 it was described as a desolate building. Ownership changed quite frequently over the next few decades. In 1599 Ferdinand von Concin zu Weissenberg and Plankenstein was enfeoffed with Kälberhart. Peter Hofmann von Ankerskron had owned the facility since 1637. Maybe he was the one who gave her the shape she has today. His descendants sold Kälberhart to Leopold Philipp Graf Montecucolli, whose widow passed it on to Johann Ignaz von Albrechtsberg in 1698. His son Jordan united it with his Strannersdorf estate. In 1782 Karl Freiherr von Seldern bought the two properties. In 1876 the Counts Barth von Barthenheim followed, then the knights Mitscha-Märheim and the Reich-Rohrwig family. Today the property is owned by the König family and has been extensively renovated.
