Schlaining Castle, Medieval castle and peace museum in Stadtschlaining, Austria

The stone fortress rises on a hill at 378 meters above sea level, featuring defensive walls and architectural elements from different historical periods.

First documented in 1271 as castrum Zloynuk under the ownership of the Counts of Güssing, the castle changed hands to knight Andreas Baumkircher in the 15th century.

The castle currently houses the Austrian Study Centre for Peace and Conflict Resolution, offering six interactive exhibitions about medieval life and modern peace initiatives.

The castle welcomes visitors from Tuesday to Sunday between 09:00 and 17:00, with an entrance fee of 20 euros, while Burgenland Card holders enter free.

Schlaining Castle combines its medieval military architecture with a modern role as an international center for peace studies and cultural exchange programs.
