성 아래의 교회("sub castello")는 서기 1000년부터 처음 언급되었으며 이 지역에서 가장 오래된 기독교 예배 장소 중 하나일 것입니다. 산악 교회 뒤의 바위 동굴은 성 베드로와 성 바울에게 헌정되었습니다.

Pitten Castle, also called Burg Pitten, is a former hilltop castle in the market town of Pitten in Lower Austria that was converted into a hunting lodge in the 19th century. [wikipedia] It is privately owned. Note: The path to the castle is lined with 'cycling prohibited' signs.

A castle was probably built in the middle of the 11th century on the site of an old rampart, secured by ditches and palisades, on the mountain spur above the Pitten parish church. Today, only images of this once fortified structure, which was first mentioned in documents in 1094 and is also mentioned in the Nibelungenlied, exist. In its dominant position, the castle secured the border to Hungary, but was nevertheless captured and destroyed by Matthias Corvinus in 1482 after a four-year siege. The subsequently rebuilt and enlarged structure, however, withstood the Turks in 1529 and 1683. The famous 140 m deep well was commissioned by Johann Christoph Teufel Freiherr zu Gundersdorf. It was dug by hand, as gunpowder was not yet used for blasting at that time. A major reconstruction took place around 1840 and a further extension with residential wings was added in 1884, although the castle-like character was lost. Only in the west are the remains of a high medieval ashlar wall preserved. The hunting lodge was primarily used as a base for noble hunting parties; it passed to the House of Parma/Habsburg in 1883. Today the castle is privately owned.
