Burgruine Freyenstein Neustadtl, Medieval castle ruins in Neustadtl an der Donau, Austria.
The castle ruins stand on a narrow rocky ridge above the Danube River, with remaining walls reaching a height of ten meters.
Built around 1200, the castle served as a strategic point to monitor ship traffic on the Danube River until its abandonment in 1657.
The castle ruins represent medieval defensive architecture of Lower Austria, with its hexagonal tower and three-meter-thick stone walls.
The ruins remain accessible throughout the year via a walking path from the valley, offering visitors the chance to explore the former fortress.
The castle features a hidden water source within its defensive tower, which provided continuous water supply during medieval times.
