Burghausen Castle towers magnificently over the beautiful old town and the Salzach River - and at 1,051 meters in length is also officially the "world's longest castle". From here you have a fantastic view of the main castle.

September 24, 2024,🌤️🏘️ Burghausen und seine weltlängste Burg 🏰🏰🏰

The clouds 🌧️ hung low in Waldkirchen 🏘️ today, very low, ground fog with rain 😂. But they said it would improve during the day 🌤️. But I didn't want to wait for that. Yesterday evening I had already planned a tour accordingly because I had also rejected another one.

Along the world's longest castle, then down to the Wöhrsee circuit.

June 23, 2024,AÖ: Burghausen und Salzachdurchbruch

Burghausen is really a very beautiful town. The old town is a gem squeezed between the castle hill and the Salzach. The houses have all been wonderfully renovated. There is no comparison with the time when the flood protection wall did not yet exist.
The Wöhrsee was dammed in the Middle Ages and was a solid, defensive part of the …
