Schloss Gurhof

Schloss Gurhof is a long, rectangular castle complex centered around a grand courtyard with the main manor house and agricultural buildings extending along both sides. The buildings are arranged to form one unified compound that historically served as both a residence and working estate.

The noble residence was built between 1484 and 1498 by Jorg Hasiber von Hag, a captain of Gottweig and vassal to Count Michael of Hardegg zu Retz. Its construction during that period reflects the time when the region was controlled by powerful local noble families.

The late Baroque chapel inside the castle serves as a setting for ceremonies and celebrations where visitors can observe the period architecture and design. The building's continued use for such occasions reflects how it functions as a cultural venue for the region today.

The castle provides lodging for guests, with additional accommodation available in the surrounding area for those needing more space. The property features equestrian facilities for visitors interested in riding or boarding their horses during their stay.

The property includes a riding sports center where private horses can be boarded and cared for by experienced staff. This facility shows how the historical estate continues to serve practical equestrian purposes alongside its role as a cultural venue.
