A modern building right next to the Peace Cross. Worth seeing. The view from up here is at least as impressive. You'll also find several places to rest nearby. Or you can stop by the restaurant at the Kreuzstadl.

A beautiful church, rebuilt after the World Wars as a peace project. The square around the church is also inviting for strolling and relaxing. We enjoyed our time here.

The patronage of this church, "Maria (or, alternatively, the Assumption of Mary," refers to one of the many memorial days or feast days honoring the Blessed Virgin Mary. It dates back to the Feast of Her Assumption into Heaven, which the (Catholic) Church celebrates annually on August 15th. In Orthodox churches, the feast is called "Dormition of the Virgin Mary." In many rural areas, it used to be customary for the population to gather bundles of herbs on this day and bless them during the festive service. This custom has been partially preserved or, in some places, revived.

The history of this memorial goes back much further than the monuments found in almost every town to the fallen soldiers of the two world wars that claimed so many lives in the first half of the 20th century. It commemorates the military conflicts of the 16th and 17th centuries, when the then "Ottoman Empire" conquered parts of the Balkans from the territory of present-day Turkey and advanced on Vienna. In 1529 and again in 1683, the army laid siege to the Austrian capital, which the Sultan called the "Golden Apple," but both times unsuccessfully. But even between these two more famous campaigns, there were hostile clashes between the Habsburg and Ottoman Empires. Here, near Mogersdorf, the imperial troops were victorious, ending the so-called Turkish War of 1663/64.

St. Emmerich's Church, consecrated in 1903, served as the parish church of Inzenhof, Tschanigraben, and several Hungarian communities until World War II. During the Iron Curtain era, it stood in no man's land between Austria and Hungary. The communists allowed the church to fall into disrepair, making it inaccessible from Austria. St. Emmerich's Church, near Güssing, offers ideal conditions for encounters between people from both sides of the still-existing border. It lies precisely on the Austro-Hungarian border strip, in a clearing amidst a vast forest, and is the only place along the border where people can meet for church service or a concert without border formalities – a place with great symbolic value.

I love this castle! I am happy that it can be visited freely and there is less interference from posterity than in the case of other larger castles in the area. ... there will be good summer programs for sure and I will also award the creative exhibition... Wheelbarrows!😄👍
