A historic castle next to a futuristic open-air stage in a landscape park, a 19th-century riding school next to a modern concert hall and much more await you in Grafenegg. The slender courtyard-facing turret of Schloss Grafenegg represents the late Gothic construction phase. The Renaissance era also lastingly shaped the development of the castle, which in the first half of the 17th century already presented a four-wing complex with two towering structures. A moat and four wall houses provided impressive protection. A chapel was erected on the east side. Grafenegg thus acquired the form that is still partially preserved today. The garden pavilion, where festivities were celebrated and theatre was performed, is reminiscent of the Baroque period. Following the example of English castles, a complex in the style of romantic historicism was to be erected. This is how Schloss Grafenegg, as we know it today as a landmark, came into being.
