The beautiful castle park with its impressive old trees is also freely accessible through the campus of the agricultural college

A magnificent palace, and especially the palace grounds with their ancient trees and islands of flowers. We arrived just in time to admire the beautiful peonies.

A beautiful ambiance where you can enjoy coffee and cake. There are also many great historical treasures to admire.😍👍🏻

A beautiful little town with a church and a castle. The north-south long-distance hiking trail 05 and the Roman road 651 pass through here.

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.

We stayed overnight in the castle on our long-distance hike from Hungary to Switzerland. We were impressed by the stylish room (do you say room in a castle?) and the good dinner. We can highly recommend this castle.

The castle on the slope of the Hiesberg was first mentioned in 1100 in connection with a Wernher von Zelking. Wernher von Zelking's origins are unclear. A relationship with the noble family of the Lords of Haguenau is not proven, nor is it that he was the son of Reginbert (III.) of Haguenau, as is usually assumed in research. He was married and the father of Ulrich (I.) von Zelking.[1] The Lords of Zelking died out in 1634. The festival passed through marriage to the Polheim family in Wartenburg and around 1662 to Andrä Joachim Graf Sinzendorf.[2] When the Turks besieged Vienna in 1683 and their patrols advanced far into western Lower Austria, the still well-fortified castle served as a place of refuge for the surrounding civilian population.[2] After the manorial administration was relocated to nearby Matzleinsdorf, the fortress was abandoned. In 1802 Franziska Countess Kinsky, a widowed Countess Sinzendorf, married Count Harrach for the second time. Later owners included the Counts of Rohrau and the Galgozy-Galantha family. Today the ruins only consist of stonework from the 12th to 16th centuries. However, you can still see the massive arched gate and some notched windows.
