Renaissance castle with diorama of the battle of King Ottokar of Bohemia and Rudolf of Habsburg (1278), remarkable castle chapel and Sala Terrena; castle museum with a focus on "archaeology and paleontology".

Just the way you want it on a road bike tour: a covered bench with a table to have a bar and a water pump to quench your thirst and fill up the bottles. Exemplary, thank you Mannersdorf. I wish there were more places!

Especially coming from Dürnkrut, you can take a completely empty road downhill to Stillfried through beautiful nature and enjoy a great view (see photos). It's also nice to whiz downhill. So if you don't necessarily have to be almost 1 minute faster, this variant is recommended.
