Castles & Palaces
A castle represents might on the one hand and fear of loss of power on the other. Owing to its awe-inspiring size and its position high above the country it signalized its defensibility to approaching aggressors already from afar.


However, castles also served as a refuge for rulers who sought its protection from uncompromising enemies. Austria is a country of castles, a name that its province Burgenland (land of castles) bears witness of.
