A lovingly maintained castle ruin in the middle of the Waldviertel Kamp landscape

Right at the beginning of the route you have a beautiful view of Raabs Castle.

According to legend, the lord of the castle asked the devil for his help to build the Bohemian Wall within seven days. When the devil wanted to drag the client to hell after the construction had been completed on time as agreed, the client refused and clung to the gate so tightly that his fingers left marks in the stone. Until a few years ago, there were actually five depressions that, given their size and position relative to each other, could have been made by fingers. However, these "fingerprints" were destroyed by vehicles that hit the gate and damaged it. Source: Wikipedia

Great place in the forest

Castle visits are possible with a guide, but only on weekends. Getting there is the easiest when approaching the Raabs an der Thaya from the south. Road uphills from the town centre is very steep, so prepare for pushing the bike.

The Bohemian Wall is a fortification north of the Kollmitz castle ruins. In order to compensate for this location disadvantage after the introduction of heavy firearms, a wall was built around 1450 at a distance of 300 to 400 meters, which cut off the meander of the Thaya on which the castle was built. The Bohemian Wall is over 100 meters long and about 5 meters high. On the side facing the castle there was a battlement, the defenders found protection behind rectangular battlements.

A large event takes place every year on the large meadow under the motorcycle angel, the Biker Corpus Christi: http://biker-fronleichnam.at/ From the height of the anniversary meadow, the motorcycle angel Raphael greets: "The Lord protects me with his wings, under his pinions I find refuge" (Psalm 91). Here you will find a memorial to motorcyclists who have had accidents, see photos, which is accessible all year round via a path.

Beautiful old ruin to visit, in summer also a snack station on site
