カルテンロイトゲベンの天然記念物・トップ20

Impressive ancestral castle of the Liechtenstein family. The tour is highly recommended, and admission is included in the NÖ Card.

The Antonsgrotte opposite the Cholera Chapel in Helenental is a popular destination. The place of worship, always decorated with candles, now has another attraction. Bird feeding is carried out there with particular passion, and indeed: the birds eat a lot and happily. BADEN. Bird feeding at the Antonsgrotte is a tradition. Elisabeth Werkmann - she has been looking after the Antonsgrotte for five years - took over this task last year from her predecessor, who suddenly dropped out.

The network of promenades dates back to Archduke Anton (1779–1835), who had it built in the years up to 1829. The highlight was the Antonsgrotte, which stands roughly opposite the Cholera Chapel, which did not yet exist at the time. The approximately 2.2 km long section of the Helenental from Antonsbrücke to Antonsgrotte is therefore called Antonstal. Source: https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helenental

The Matterhörndl is a small but impressive rock in the Vienna Woods that is perfect for a short rest. It is a little hidden away from the main path and easy to miss, but it is worth the visit. With a small opening through and the opportunity to climb around a bit, it is a mystical place for photographers, children and nature lovers. I visited this mountain as part of my Dwarf Mountain Tours series. My goal is to climb every mountain in the Vienna Woods.

The Antonsgrotte is located on the Wegerl in the Helenental, near the cholera chapel.

Location description Liechtenstein Castle is located south of Maria Enzersdorf on the edge of the former Liechtenstein Landscape Park about 300 m above sea level on the edge of the Vienna Woods in the Föhrenberge Nature Park, about 75 meters above the center of Maria Enzersdorf. It is built on an extremely narrow rock ridge north of the Kalenderberg, which runs east-west and consists of dark (but light weathering) Gutenstein limestone, Reichenhall Rauhwacke and Steinalm limestone. At the southern foot of the castle hill, in a Baden conglomerate gully on the northeast edge of the Gaaden Basin, stands Liechtenstein Castle, which was built at a later date.

Liechtenstein Castle, the ancestral seat of the Princes of Liechtenstein on the edge of the southern Vienna Woods, is not a museum in the traditional sense, but rather a place steeped in history, but at the same time extremely lively, which attracts thousands of visitors from all over the world every year.
