old castle ruins of Jochenstein

800 years old. Unfortunately, only this defensive tower remains.

The Neujochenstein castle ruins are the ruins of a hilltop castle on a hill above the Danube near the Jochenstein at 583 m above sea level. It is located on the outskirts of Riedl, a village in the municipality of Untergriesbach in the Lower Bavarian district of Passau. The Neujochenstein castle was probably founded due to a lack of space on the Altjochenstein castle, which is only a few hundred meters away, and was first mentioned in a document in 1299, when its owner, Eberwein von Jochenstein, granted Bishop Wernhard of Passau (Diocese of Passau) extensive access rights. In 1310 the castle was sold and occupied by caretakers (burgraves or bailiffs who were responsible for the administration and defense of a castle or monastery) until the 16th century. After that the castle quickly fell into disrepair. From 2006 to 2007 the municipality of Untergriesbach carried out renovation work on the remains of the castle.

Great tips and information to make you want to visit this place. Thank you for that!

The romantic Vichtenstein Castle is located in the center of Vichtenstein, just a few meters from the Donausteig. Today the castle is owned by the Schulz-Wulkow family, who also live there. The castle cannot be visited!

Vichtenstein Castle rises clearly above the Danube valley in the Sauwald in Upper Austria in the municipality of Vichtenstein, opposite the Obernzell market in Lower Bavaria.
