Hartenstein Castle, Medieval castle in Weinzierl am Walde, Austria

Located on a hill near the Kleine Krems river, Hartenstein Castle features an outer structure reflecting traditional medieval architectural designs and fortifications.

The castle underwent several construction phases between the 12th and 15th centuries, followed by significant modifications during the late 19th century restoration period.

The castle and its surrounding area preserve medieval heritage through local events, maintaining connections to the historical development of Lower Austria.

While the castle interior remains closed to visitors, numerous hiking trails around the grounds offer views of both the castle and Gudenus Cave below.

The presence of Gudenus Cave beneath the castle contains archaeological evidence of Neanderthal habitation, adding prehistoric significance to the location.
