The remains of Stickelberg Castle, which have been sleeping in a deep slumber for centuries, are enchanted and mystical. A mighty hilltop castle once stood here. Today it is privately owned and unfortunately cannot be visited. You can also see the overgrown wall remains from outside the property.

Stickelberg Castle was probably built in the second quarter of the 13th century. The castle first appears in documents in 1259 in the will of Berthold von Treun, who bequeathed it to the then Austrian sovereign and Bohemian King Ottokar II Premysl, which made the castle sovereign.
The Stickelberg castle ruins associated with the Steyersberg estate have remained privately owned by the Wurmbrand-Stuppach family to this day and are therefore unfortunately not open to the public.
