Burg Perchtoldsdorf, Medieval castle in Perchtoldsdorf, Austria.

The castle features a 60-meter-tall tower house, defensive walls, and multiple courtyards within its fortified perimeter near the Vienna Woods.

First documented in 1138 under Lord Heinricus de Pertoldesdorf, the castle served as part of a defensive line during the Babenberg dynasty rule.

The castle halls and courtyards now function as venues for theater performances, concerts, exhibitions, and community gatherings throughout the year.

The castle offers guided tours from April through October, with parking facilities available at the main entrance on Burgplatz.

The fortress withstood multiple sieges, including attacks from Hungarian forces in 1446 and Ottoman troops during the 1529 siege of Vienna.
