Burg Neckenmarkt, Medieval castle ruins in Neckenmarkt, Austria.
The stone walls of Burg Neckenmarkt stand on a western elevation above the town, with remaining fortification traces visible along the Lange Zeile area.
Built in the early 13th century by Laurentius Aba from a Hungarian noble family, the castle met its destruction in 1289 during the Second Güssinger Feud.
The castle site, known locally as Burgstall field, represents a significant period of Austrian medieval military architecture and noble residence construction methods.
Visitors can access the castle ruins through a hollow path that formed part of the original fortification system, with parking available in Neckenmarkt town.
During the castle's final siege, 50 women and 30 children escaped the burning structure while the male defenders perished in the underground mining attack.
