Seebenstein Castle

Highlight • Castle

July 31, 2021 - The castle is impressive even from the outside. During a guided tour you can also get to know the inside of the castle, which is very interesting. The visit of the building, with the courtyards and the well-appointed interiors, is highly recommended.

Beech Forest on Schlossberg

Highlight • Forest

The beech is one of the economically most important deciduous trees in Central Europe. It is a very productive tree species in almost all locations. A special feature is its high plasticity into old age, which results in its very long growth performance. A decline in growth performance is not to be expected.

Summit cross and viewpoint near Türkensturz

Highlight • Summit

“Each of these crosses can tell its own story and what prompted people to erect “their” cross at this point. (...) These wayside crosses were erected as visible signs and attract the attention of many people. The cross is a symbol of life. It stands as a sign of our Christian hope and wants to direct our gaze to Jesus Christ, who has overcome death (...). The cross is part of our life as it was in the life of Jesus.
So I wish that many people … visit the crosses, whether as places of stillness and breathing space before God, whether as places for community gatherings, prayer and praise to God.”
(Text source: Dean Rainald M. Ollig
in: "Crossroads... small sacred monuments as a sign of popular piety")
