Galgenberg

The Galgenberg cellar lane features 180 wine cellars carved into the hillside, forming a network of underground storage spaces for wine production.

The mountain derived its name from a gallows that stood at its peak until 1828, marking a significant period in the region's judicial history.

This extensive collection of press houses represents traditional Austrian winemaking methods, with local families maintaining their ancestral wine production practices.

Visitors can arrange guided tours throughout the year to explore the cellars, participate in wine tastings, and enjoy regional food specialties.

The site includes a bell tower without a church at its summit, standing as a solitary landmark above the 180 press houses.
