May 10, 2026, Neuberg Castle

This medieval hilltop castle was built in the 12th century by Gottschalk Schirling (from 1166 of Neitberg/Neuberg), son of Wulfing von Stubenberg, as a border fortress or "fighting castle" against the feared Hungarian armies and against all sorts of "pagan rabble" from the East.

Perfect location! At least if you come up from the fish pond below, like we did today. And nicely shady.

Seems a bit "dated" but perhaps that's exactly what gives it that certain something?!

A beautiful Marterl (shrine) here at the road fork. Right next to it, you will also find a resting place.
