With some guts, you can take the creek passage and enjoy the refreshment. Or take the bridge and stay dry.

Ruins of Kollmitz Castle

Highlight • Castle

The castle ruins of Kollmitz, well worth seeing, are enthroned on a rock high above the Thaya. The medieval complex was once one of the most important in Lower Austria, today you can still admire meter-high walls, two round towers and ramparts.

Kollmitz Castle was first mentioned in a document in the 12th century, then it was owned by various noble families, the Geras Abbey, and was left to decay around 1800 when the roofs, attics and false ceilings were removed. Many buildings in the area were built partly from stones and shingles from the castle.

Guided tours are carried out by appointment and there is also a snack station. You can find all information at kollmitz.at.

Gaberkirche Ruins

Highlight • Historical Site

The so-called Gaberkirche is the well-preserved, albeit heavily restored remainder of the former castle Gaber. This was probably built around 1300. Most of the existing quarry stone masonry dates from the second half of the 14th century. Since practically only the walls of the castle chapel stand upright, the name Gaberkirche has become naturalized for the entire castle. The gentlemen of Gaber seem in the time between 1327 and 1405 on several occasions. The family might not have been very significant. Little is known about them. The military importance of the small festivals should also not have been very large. Bernhard von Gaber is first documented in 1327. Last Georg von Gaber 1405 appears. In the late 15th century, the castle Gaber is already described as dull. In 1543, the ruins of the Lords of Eibenstein, together with Eibenstein, became the property of the brothers Christoph and Erasmus von Schneckenreith. Eight years later, Margarethe von Schneckenreith sold the "desolate Veste" to the local community of Luden, which is still the owner of the largely overgrown ruin.
