A nice destination for the whole family, because in addition to the good food, there is also a small wildlife park with pigs, goats, horses and chickens. There is also a playground for children. Monday and Tuesday are rest days. You can find more information at https://www.hochriess.at/oeffnungszeiten-wildpark-niederoesterreich-mostviertel/#c1027

A comprehensive restoration took place in 1994. Since then, the castle has mainly consisted of apartments and business premises. Since 1983, a side wing of the city's Protestant community has served as a religious center. The prehistoric collection of the city museum is housed in another side building. Today the market castle and the castle park are the heart of the city center.
