Weinberg Castle in Mühlviertler Kernland
The castle is one of the country’s most impressive fortresses. It was first documented in 1274 and today it serves as the national education centre for music and environment protection. The stuccoed ceilings and the tiled stoves especially in the State Apartments are worth a visit. Today social and cultural events take place here. The year’s highlight is the Weinberg Advent before Christmas.
