マリア・ターファールのおすすめツーリングルート

マリア・タファーリからドナウ渓谷を見下ろすパノラマビューは、夢のようです。有名な巡礼聖堂であるBasilika Maria Taferlのテラスからは、ドナウ渓谷を越えてアルプスまで見渡せます。特徴的なエッチュターが特に際立っています。

マリア・ターフェルは、マリアツェルに次いでニーダーエスターライヒ州で最も重要な巡礼地であり、バロック様式の総合芸術作品です。教会はオーストリアのバロック建築の「重要人物」です。その前に立つと、当時の絶対的なエリートの作品を見ることができます。建設は1660年にダニエル・グランの下で始まりましたが、シュティフト・メルクの創作者であるヤコブ・プランドタウアーとヨーゼフ・ムンゲナストによって完成されました。印象的な双子の塔と明るいファサードは、ドナウ渓谷の王冠のように見えるように配置されています。

The castle is prominently situated on a rock on the right bank of the Danube, above the municipality of Persenbeug-Gottsdorf, at the transition from the Strudengau to the Nibelungengau.

The cannon roundabout of Pöggstall Castle was built around 1530 as an outlying defensive structure and served to defend the castle. The round fortress tower, with its mighty walls and loopholes, was part of the former moated castle complex. Today, the roundabout is considered one of the most impressive late medieval defensive structures in Lower Austria.

A fascinating castle with an exhibition included in the Lower Austria Card. Food and drinks are available.
