Schloss Strelzhof, Castle in Willendorf, Austria
Schloss Strelzhof is a castle in Willendorf, Austria, featuring a three-story structure with four wings set within a five-hectare park. The grounds contain multiple ponds, a pavilion, and a swimming pool.
The original settlement at this location dates to 1150 and included a St. Mark's Chapel consecrated by Bishop Hartmann von Brixen. The castle later suffered significant fire damage between 1925 and 1926.
The property holds protected monument status and functions as a wedding venue where guests can celebrate in the 800-square-meter interior courtyard. This dual purpose connects its historical role with contemporary social gatherings.
The property includes stables and a riding school managed by Pony-Team, offering regular lessons and dressage training. Access and availability may vary depending on private events and the season.
Diplomat Heinrich von Lützow sold the property to Credit Foncier Auxiliaire AG Zürich in 1920, after which it endured years of fire damage. This period of ownership marked a turning point in its physical condition and fate.
