Starhemberg라는 이름은 원래 이름인 'starker Berg'(강한 산) 또는 'Starkenberg'에서 유래했습니다. 이 성은 오스트리아 상부(Oberösterreich)에 있는 같은 이름의 성인 슈로스 스타르헨베르크(Haag am Hausruck)와, 슈타르헨베르크 가문의 이름이 유래된 곳이며 현재의 거주지인 슈로스 스타르헨베르크(Eferding)와 혼동해서는 안 됩니다. 여기서 다루는 성의 폐허는 유명한 사도 가문과는 아무런 관련이 없었습니다.

1182년, 슈타이어(Steiermark)의 변경백 오타카르 4세(Otakar IV, 또는 오토카르 Ottokar)의 문서에서 그의 아버지가 헌정한 제카우 수도원(Stift Seckau)의 자유를 확인하는 “칼호흐 데 슈트라테슈타인(Chalhoch de Stratensteine)”이 증언합니다. 2년 후, 그의 아들 “오르톨프(Ortolf)”도 문서에 등장합니다. 두 이름 모두 슈라텐슈타인(Schrattenstein) 영주들의 특징적인 이름입니다.

The Schrattenstein is a wooded mountain near Würflach, crowned by the romantic Schrattenstein ruins. From the summit and around the ruins, there are always magnificent views of the surrounding area and the Hohe Wand mountain. The castle ruins are freely accessible and lend the place a special, historic atmosphere. A worthwhile destination for a leisurely hike – especially beautiful in combination with the Johannesbach Gorge or the Andreassteig Trail.

The Schrattenstein Castle ruins sit perched on a rocky outcrop above the valley and offer magnificent views over the surrounding hills as far as the Hohe Wand mountain. The remains of the former hilltop castle are now freely accessible and invite exploration – with ancient walls, weathered stones, and a special, almost mystical atmosphere. A worthwhile detour for hikers who appreciate history and views in equal measure. It's particularly beautiful at sunset or as the destination for a circular hike through the Johannesbach Gorge or from the Andreassteig Trail.

The Emmerberg Castle ruins are located on a ridge near the Prosset Gorge and are among the historic fortresses of Lower Austria. First mentioned around 1170, they served as an important defensive point on what was then the northern border of the Carantanian March. Although they were never militarily tested, they were inhabited until 1760 before they began to decay – triggered by the sale of the roof structure. Although the ruins are now inaccessible for safety reasons, their imposing remains and picturesque location make them a fascinating sight.

The Starhemberg castle ruins, once a significant site north of Dreistetten, have an eventful history. Originally a Styrian fortress, it fell to the Babenbergs in 1192 and was expanded into a palace under Frederick the Quarrelsome. After his death, the Teutonic Order administered it for a short time before it passed into Habsburg ownership in 1278. In 1482, the castle was captured by King Matthias Corvinus. From 1590, it belonged to the Counts of Heussenstein for over 200 years and survived the Turkish onslaught in 1683. Around 1800, it was covered over to avoid taxes and has remained in ruins ever since. Today, it is owned by the Salvator Habsburg-Lothringen family. Officially, access is prohibited, but the imposing walls and the view make it a popular destination for hikers.

Archduke Leopold Ludwig inherited the property in 1854. Hernstein Castle owes its current appearance to him. He spent 28 years rebuilding and expanding the castle according to plans by Theophil Hansen, who is also the architect of the Parliament in Vienna. Since 2023, the Hotel Schloss Hernstein has been run as a public hotel and is a popular wedding location. More on the history: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schloss_Hernstein
