Sitzenthal Castle is a 16th-century castle building that was rebuilt and modernized by Count Ledochowska in the 19th century. On the upper floor, the castle has a colonnaded hall and rooms with ridge vaults, historical furniture and valuable paintings. Currently privately owned and therefore not accessible. Since then, the castle has been a fief of Melk Abbey and belonged to Count Ludwig Starhemberg, who was outlawed in 1619. In the 20th century, Sitzenthal came to the Barons Hammerstein-Equord. The poet and politician Hans Hammerstein-Equord (d. 1947), who was born here in the castle, was Austrian Federal Minister of Justice in 1936 and a prisoner in the Mauthausen concentration camp after 1938.

One of the typical small monuments that the Dunkelsteinerwald tour passes.

Johannes Nepomuk statue, originally in Loosdorf on Reichsstraße at the vaulting of the Marktbach, then at the northwest end of the parish garden, he now has a place again as the bridge saint at the Albrechtsberger Pielachbrücke.

The castle was built and named by Albrecht von Perg (1120, † 1168), a member of the family of the Lords of Perg and Machland. After the Perg family died out, half of the castle passed directly to the Babenbergs, and the remaining half to the County of Plain and its successors, the County of Schaunberg. At the end of the 19th century, extensive reconstruction work was carried out under the Auersperg family. The castle was devastated during World War II in 1945. Since 1995, it has been owned by the Weinberger family and is being gradually renovated.
