Reviews
A nice privately owned castle with guided tours. We could exactly reach the last tour and we liked it. The most interesting part for me was the hiding place for Luther's bible! It was awesome!
1400 had a pvt tour of the place nobody else was there at the time. Guide was great castle has been well restored. Really worth going of the highway for. Has a little museum of Steyr car inside as well
Others have said it many times, so i'll just add that the lady that works there is so nice and welcoming. I was late for 10 min, but she waited for me and was really an amazing guide.
Love the place and the whole surrounding.
Beautiful und quiet place to relax getting a little bit of Austrian history. Incredible Styer cars collection.
Old car models and nice view from top of the Palace Museum.
I can't read
Christmas market 2023 at Strechau Castle. Admission is chargeable, but it's worth it. The atmosphere was wonderful. There was no canned music, three ladies sang beautiful old Christmas carols at different stations and that fit perfectly with the surroundings. The vastness caused many visitors to get lost. There were fire baskets with crackling wood everywhere, small lanterns with burning candles stood on the bar tables and the various hot drinks were served in old mugs. The stalls in the old castle weren't my thing, but as we all know, taste is debatable. In the castle itself, the old tiled stoves were heated...mmmm, very cozy, and the old wooden ceilings and ancient wooden boxes also attracted a lot of aaaahhh and ooooohh. Yes, it was quite something, especially because the visitors had to walk through the deep winter forest to the castle and back again. No electric lights, just the full moon, like in old times. It was just good for the soul. Thank you for this beautiful experience!
A beautiful, orderly and well-preserved castle. If I understood the tour guide correctly, it is still family owned.
A group starts every hour, if I remember correctly, until the end of October.
Visiting the castle ends in a car museum. /this alone would have been worth watching/
I recommend leaving the car in the parking lot further away, because from there a short/600m/ but very beautiful little forest road leads to the castle.
Thank you very much!
