Ybbs on the Danube

Highlight • Settlement

The municipality of Ybbs an der Donau in the district of Melk lies at the transition from Strudengau and Nibelungengau. Thanks to its enchanting landscapes by the water and numerous events and sights, Ybbs is considered a tranquil excursion and holiday idyll. Families with children in particular feel that they are in good hands in the friendly town in Lower Austria's Mostviertel: Comfortable accommodation and restaurateurs with a heart are happy to look after the well-being of their big and small guests.

View of Persenbeug Castle

Highlight • Viewpoint

A very beautiful view and a beautiful view of the castle! It looks imposing and magnificent, so close and above the Danube. Beautiful! Just take a short break and take in the perspective. The first historical mention of the castle dates back to 907. The Bavarian Sieghart, Count of Sempt and Ebersberg, took possession of "Bösenberg" and fortified it.

Between Persenbeug and Ybbs lies a mighty lock, which is the oldest hydroelectric power plant in Austria. From the bridge you can enjoy an impressive view of Persenbeug Castle and the many ships. The power plant on the Danube Cycle Path can also be visited: kraftwerksfuehrungen.at.
