The so-called Neuschloss was built by Count Auersperg in 1679. In the Oberau settlers' putsch in 1926, unemployed people from Vienna occupied the Au between Orth and Mannsdorf on the Danube.

The baroque garden laid out by Johann Lukas von Hildebrandt for the Harrach family in Bruck an der Leitha was redesigned at the end of the 18th century by the gardener and botanist Christoph Lübeck in the style of the English landscape garden.
