The Liechtenstein Castle is a hilltop castle. It stands on a rocky ridge at an altitude of about 300 m above sea level and was first mentioned in documents in 1330. The House of Liechtenstein, after which the Principality of Liechtenstein, which it founded, is named, has its ancestral seat there. The progenitor of the noble family began building the castle around 1130. In the 13th century it fell to other families, and in 1683 it was largely destroyed during the Second Turkish Siege of Vienna. The Princes of Liechtenstein bought the ruins back in 1808 and restored them in the neo-Romanesque style. Since then it has been owned by the Princely House of Liechtenstein. The castle complex has been the setting for films and literature and is a listed building.
The castle was closed from 2007 to 2009 for safety reasons due to structural defects. In 2008 and 2009 it was renovated and given a new roof. The castle has been open to the public again since spring 2010.
There are different types of tours.
