Schloss Luberegg

Schloss Luberegg sits on the left bank of the Danube and displays classical architectural features with symmetrical proportions. The stone building now contains three luxury suites that blend historical character with contemporary amenities.

Josef von Fürnberg, a timber merchant and Danube admiral, built the castle in 1787. Emperor Franz II later purchased it as a summer residence and secured its status as an imperial estate.

The suites named after Austrian rulers reflect how the castle has long represented a connection to royal heritage in the region. Visitors experience rooms that speak to the close ties between the monarchy and this location on the river.

The castle offers wheelchair access throughout and provides accessible spaces for all guests. Suites include coffee makers and local products, making for a comfortable stay.

The castle originally served as a timber floating station and postal office, connecting the Waldviertel region to important trade routes. This dual function made it a strategic hub for commerce and communication along the river.
