Burg Streitwiesen

Burg Streitwiesen is a castle ruin in Weiten, Lower Austria, where stone walls rise above the surrounding landscape. The site displays typical features of a medieval fortification with visible remains of its original structure.

The castle was built during the Middle Ages as a strategic defensive position in the region. Over the centuries it changed hands repeatedly and eventually lost its military importance.

The site stands today as a protected monument reflecting medieval times in the region. Visitors can sense how important such fortifications were to people living in that era.

Hikers can reach the ruins via marked trails, and sturdy footwear is recommended due to uneven ground throughout the site. Plan extra time for your visit as paths can be steep or slippery in places.

Beneath the walls lie partially preserved underground vaults that reveal how medieval builders worked. These chambers show how people stored food and goods in those times.
