Liechtenstein Castle, Medieval castle and museum in Maria Enzersdorf, Austria.
Liechtenstein Castle is a medieval structure on the southern edge of Vienna Woods in Maria Enzersdorf with Romanesque architecture, thick stone walls, wooden beamed ceilings, and chamber rooms from different periods. The rooms display furniture, weapons, and other objects that reflect the lives of earlier inhabitants.
The castle was founded around 1130 and later survived sieges and attacks, including destruction during conflicts of the 16th and 17th centuries. Following this period, extensive restoration during the 19th century brought the structure into its present form.
The castle hosts theatre performances and cultural events throughout the year, making it an active venue for artistic presentations. This use connects its historical past with contemporary art and performances in the region.
Access is through guided tours that depart from Maria Enzersdorf and ensure a well-organized visit. Visitors should note that photography may be restricted in some interior areas, and sturdy footwear is advisable for the sloped pathways.
This structure is directly connected to the name of the Principality of Liechtenstein, as the ruling family owned it for several centuries. The origin of an entire nation traces back to this location.
