Around 1120, Adalbert von Sachsengang was documented as the first representative of the family named after the castle. When Emperor Ferdinand III put Sachsengang up for sale in 1655, it was already in very poor condition. Johann Konrad von Richthausen became the new lord of the castle. He primarily engaged in alchemical experiments in Sachsengang. As early as 1659, he sold the castle to Dr. Jakob von Thavonat, a South Tyrolean, who had it expanded into a palace. His descendants still live in and manage the castle today.

Nice to take a look!

Lost place... dilapidated castle in a huge area.

The Sachsengang fortress, probably one of the oldest and perhaps the oldest, fortification around Vienna, was one of the most important in the medieval chain of castles that stretched from Eßling to Stopfenreuth. In 1659, the South Tyrolean Baron Dr. Jakob von Thavonat bought the Sachsengang castle and converted it into a palace. His descendants still live in and manage the castle today.

Altkettenhof Castle, also known as Dreher Castle or Kettenhof Castle, is a baroque castle in the Lower Austrian town of Schwechat. The castle was built in the 13th century as a small complex in what is now the Alt-Kettenhof district of Schwechat and was continually expanded. In 1760, the Archducal Austrian First Chancellor Heinrich Kajetan von Blümegen (1715–1788) became the new owner of the castle and expanded it. In 1766, he founded the Kettenhofer cotton and calico factory with two partners. After his father's death, his son Franz Heinrich Graf von Blümegen lived in the castle with his daughters Josefine and Eleonora until 1813. In 1814, the property was purchased by the art patron and banker Moritz Reichsgraf von Fries (1777–1826) and his brother Philip Jacob. After his death, Johann Ziegler (then director of the Kettenhofer cotton and calico factory) and Elonora Countess von Kálnoky acquired the building. The castle acquired a new owner in 1826 with the brothers Josef, Moritz and Johann Freiherren von Ziegler; they sold it to Karl Mayer in 1830. In 1850, the castle was bought by the Austrian diplomat and later foreign minister Johann Bernhard von Rechberg and sold in 1872 to the Schwechat brewing industrialist Anton Dreher junior. Rechberg lived in the building until his death on February 26, 1899. In 1902, Dreher had the castle rebuilt in the neo-baroque style by the architect Emil Bressler (1847–1921) and the Schwechat master builder Johann Miksch (1843–1908) for around 800,000 crowns (approx. 4 million euros). The interior was designed by the Viennese furniture maker and interior designer Portois & Fix. After Anton Dreher's death in 1921, the castle was inhabited by his wife Katharina Dreher (1850-1937) until her death and in 1938 was donated to the city of Schwechat in accordance with the wishes of her son and sole heir Eugen Dreher.

Rothmühle Castle is a historical and cultural gem in the Vienna Woods region. It is a baroque castle built in the 17th century and has a medieval core.
