To sweeten the end, a homemade cream slice and a duet of ice cream dumplings with apricot – lovingly sourced from the legendary Tichy in Vienna – as well as a fine Black Forest cherry ice cream dumpling from a regional manufactory were a delight.

Orth Castle is one of the oldest surviving castles in the region and has a long history dating back to the Middle Ages. The castle was first mentioned in the 12th century and was originally a medieval moated castle. In the 16th century, the castle was converted into a Renaissance palace. Over the centuries, it served various noble families and was later taken over by the municipality. Today, it is a listed building, is an important part of Lower Austria's cultural heritage and is particularly known as the Danube-Auen National Park Center. The castle houses the national park's visitor center, which is dedicated to the unique flora and fauna of this protected floodplain landscape.

Beautiful castle! Unfortunately you have to take quite a detour to get to the courtyard.

On the castle island you don't need much luck to see pond turtles, grass snakes, ground squirrels and you can look into the storks' nests.
