Burg Obervoitsberg, Medieval castle ruin in Voitsberg, Austria.
The stone walls of Burg Obervoitsberg stand on a hill, offering views across the town of Voitsberg and the surrounding Austrian landscape.
Construction of the castle began in 1164 under Ottokar IV, Duke of Styria, with most remaining structures dating from the 14th and 15th centuries.
The castle grounds include a multi-level open-air theater where performances and concerts take place throughout the summer season against medieval stone walls.
Visitors can reach the castle ruins via a footpath from Voitsberg town center, with the exploration taking approximately 45 minutes to complete.
Local authorities transformed sections of the medieval ruins into an events venue in 2003 by installing a protective roof over the open-air stage.
