It's not true that this castle can only be visited on Saturdays. The Falkenstein Castle ruins are open daily from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. from April 1 to November 2.

The romantic castle ruins from the 11th century stand proudly above the wine-growing town of Falkenstein in the Weinviertel. The once mighty castle complex is now one of the most popular tourist destinations in the north-eastern Weinviertel. The old walls invite you to explore and offer a fantastic view.
