Explore the medieval Forchteinstein Castle

Join a guided tour through impressive Forchtenstein Castle, the landmark of Burgenland province. With its impressive fortifications, the castle has never been conquered during the wars against the Turks. Owned by the Esterhazys since the early 17th century, Forchtenstein Castle was always the “treasury” of the family and still houses its most outstanding collections. Find yourself on a unique discovery trip.  
Be sure to look at the castle’s treasure chamber, and marvel at Europe’s largest private weapons collection. The medieval castle kitchen will summon up impressions of courtly life and the culinary tastes of former times. The castle chapel, with its Gothic altar, and the extraordinary well, round off the tour through the history of the Esterházy family and their castle.
