Tips from the Community
Documented as early as the 13th century, it experienced turbulent times as a Hungarian border fortress before being expanded to its characteristic form in the 16th and 17th centuries: Striking round towers with mighty conical roofs define its exterior today. In addition to the well-known festivals, the castle is also a venue for concerts, exhibitions, and seminars. Parts of the castle, along with the garden, can be rented for conferences, celebrations, and weddings. Guided tours are also possible by appointment.

The present-day parish area initially belonged to the parish of Bromberg, from 1200 to Edlitz, and from 1250 to Krumbach, before becoming its own parish around 1320. However, as early as around 1120, the first church building in the Romanesque style was erected on the present site. The structure also served as the first part of a three-part defensive system, which consisted of the fortified house (the present-day rectory), an upstream farmstead to the north, and a rampart system. In 1320, additions were made (chancel and choir chapel, today the sacristy) in the early Gothic style. In the 15th century, the defensive capabilities of the church were further enhanced by the construction of a defensive wall around the cemetery surrounding the church, and a "Pechnase" (a defensive projection). Furthermore, a defensive storey was built above the nave, possibly with large parts of the nave itself being rebuilt. A well is also located inside the church.

At the start and end of the tour, if you want to eat more than an ice cream after the tour, the selection is limited. However, it is open seven days a week and the restrooms are easily accessible.
