Originally, after the town's founding, Trinity Square was part of Zwettl's main square, which at that time stretched as an extensive triangular plaza from the townhouses behind the Hundertwasser Fountain to the level of the Hausleitner house above the "Zur Goldenen Rose" inn. The construction of houses along the lower Landstraße, the so-called "Grätzl," significantly narrowed the main square, and the addition of the cross street eventually divided it into two squares.

During the Baroque period, people everywhere were eager to express their gratitude for overcoming the plague years and the Turkish Wars by erecting plague or Trinity columns. In 1727, the pillory in the upper square was replaced by the richly sculpted sandstone column created by Kaspar Högl of Eggenburg. During the last renovation in 1998, extensive environmental damage to the figures was repaired, and the entire column was painted a light yellow. The four life-size statues are, in the center at the front, the Immaculate Conception; to her left, St. Sebastian (pierced by five arrows); to her right, St. Roch (pointing to the plague boil on his thigh); and St. Florian (holding a flag in one hand and a bucket of water in the other). The iron fountain in the immediate vicinity of the Trinity Column is a gift from the then-mayor, Eugen Beck, of the twin town of Plochingen near Stuttgart.

If you have time, you should definitely see the castle's interior. But be sure to check the opening hours. You can also stop for refreshments in the castle tavern. Good food!

The village was first mentioned in 1246 and was originally owned by the Kuenring line of Weitra-Rappottenstein. In 1282, the estate passed to the Lords of Falkenberg, and in 1291 to Ulrich von Kapelln. In the 14th century, Arbesbach is mentioned as a freehold property. From 1326 to 1348, it was owned by the Lords of Klingenberg, who in 1347 mortgaged "the castle and the house at Arbesbach" to Weikart and Katharina von Winkl. From 1348, Arbesbach was owned by the Lords of Dachsberg, and from 1423 by the Lords of Starhemberg. In 1480, the castle was destroyed by a Bohemian raiding party and was not rebuilt. In 1600, the estate passed to the Lords of Tschernembl, and in 1604 to Georg Fenzl von... Grueb and as early as 1605 to Georg Kaspar von Neuhaus. From 1614 owned by the Lords von Hackelberg, from 1675 to 1862 by the Countess Dietrichstein. Afterwards, it passed to the Herberstein, Geusau, and Baron Holtz families, and from 1877 onwards to the Altzinger family, who still own the estate today and reside in part of the castle complex.

A truly contemplative stretch of river.

Ohne ein Foto zu machen komm ich da nicht vorbei 😇

Old and new – historical and contemporary meet here, right on the Kamp River. A glimpse into the history of the Waldviertel is possible if you let yourself be involved.

The complex opened on October 30, 1898. Construction was approved in July 1898 by the Beautification Association, under chairman Franz Beydi. A memorial to Emperor Franz Joseph was erected to commemorate the 50th anniversary of his reign. The gallery was built directly beneath a small waterfall on the path to the newly completed power plant. The plaque was designed by sculptor Carl Hermann in 1984. It bears the inscription "Emperor Franz Joseph 1848 – 1898" and features a bronze relief head of the emperor.
