Burgruine Ried, Sieghartskirchen, Medieval castle ruins in Sieghartskirchen, Austria.
The castle remnants include a Romanesque round tower, kennel wall, and outer fortification sections situated 320 meters above sea level in Vienna Woods.
First documented in 1280, the castle became residence to the Schenken von Ried family in 1286 and later transformed into a stone quarry during the 1600s.
Archaeological excavations at Burgruine Ried reveal medieval architectural elements and provide insights into regional defense structures of Lower Austria.
The site spans 3000 square meters and features walking paths connecting to different hiking routes, including the Paradeis monastery trail and Troppberg observation route.
A dedicated preservation association established in 2009 conducts regular archaeological research and maintains the structural integrity of the remaining fortifications.
