Castle Marchegg, Medieval castle in Marchegg, Austria.
The stone castle features a rectangular layout with four corner towers and combines baroque architecture with strong defensive fortifications from its original design.
King Ottokar II established Castle Marchegg before 1268 as a fortification complex, which later transformed into a baroque residence under Count Paul Pállfy.
The castle exhibition presents 750 years of regional history through artifacts, documents, and displays that showcase the development of Marchegg and its surroundings.
Visitors can explore the castle from April to November, Tuesday through Sunday, with guided tours available from 11:00 to 15:00.
The castle grounds house Central Europe's largest white stork breeding colony, with numerous nests visible on the rooftops during spring and summer.
