Wels Castle Garden is a beautiful garden. It is very well maintained, with beautiful plants and trees. I visited it this week and was truly amazed at how wonderful and calming it is. Many thanks to the city of Wels and the gardeners for their outstanding work.

The building has been beautifully renovated, and the park is also tidy. It's a house that has stood here since the 16th century. Interestingly, this castle once belonged to the Duchy of Brunswick. Marie Valerie, the fourth daughter of Emperor Franz Joseph I, who was born in Hungary, also lived here with her family for a while. The house is very well maintained. Today, there are apartments inside that can be rented. It's a shame that there is a large electrical plant right in front of it. But the whole complex radiates a very peaceful atmosphere. It used to be a moated castle, but there is no trace of that anymore. Nevertheless, it is worth seeing just from the outside.

Wels Castle is essentially a medieval building. It was the residence of the emperor's stewards. The most significant event in its history was the death of Maximilian I, known as the Last Knight. The castle houses the Wels City History Museum. It showcases the city's history from Roman times to the 21st century through fascinating exhibits. There are also films for illustrative purposes. The museum is also easily accessible with a wheelchair or stroller.

The first two photos don't fit here at all (1st photo shows Wels from the south). When the weather is clear, it's a wonderful vantage point over the Alpine chain with information pictures and a direction indicator (telescope is a gross exaggeration).
