Schloss Kirchstetten

Schloss Kirchstetten is a castle with a U-shaped structure and open eastern side in Neudorf im Weinviertel, Austria. The building combines multi-wing architecture with an adjoining park and retains Baroque design elements throughout its interior spaces.

The castle originated in the 16th century and underwent major renovation around 1729 under imperial physician Matthias von Suttner. This redesign followed plans by architect Joseph Emanuel Fischer von Erlach.

The Maulpertsch Hall displays a remarkable ceiling fresco titled 'Triumph der Wahrheit über die Zeit' by Franz Anton Maulpertsch, completed by family portraits on the walls. This room gives visitors a sense of the taste and lifestyle of the wealthy residents during the 18th century.

The venue hosts classical music concerts and performances throughout the year. Guided tours are available during the summer festival season for visitors to explore the collections and rooms.

The castle chapel is dedicated to Saint Anne and preserves its 18th-century interior. The space features illusionistic paintings created around 1800 that create visual tricks for viewers.
