Burg Krumau, Medieval castle ruins in Krumau am Kamp, Austria

The fortress stands on different levels with two courtyards and tall surrounding walls, accessed through a late medieval gate tower with a pyramidal roof.

Built in the 12th century, the castle became a Habsburg possession in 1276 and remained a pledge property for over three centuries.

From 1261 to 1267, Margaret of Austria resided in this castle after her divorce from King Ottokar II of Bohemia until her death.

The castle entrance features a pointed arch gate with pointed arch seating niches and a rectangular portal from the first half of the 17th century.

A vaulted passage in the southeast section leads to the main building, which underwent reconstruction in 1522 under pledgeholder Gregor Rauber.
