Anif Palace in Salzburg: photos, reviews

About

The eponymous Austrian province, located in the vicinity of Salzburg, is home to Anif Castle - a concentration of feudal power and influence. Despite its formidable rulers, the castle is designed in the style of romantic historicism. Anif stands on the shore of a miniature pond, with its facade reflecting gently in the dark waters with a soft pink hue. The roof tiles have a rich burgundy shade, complementing the neat balconies, small towers, and relief patterns. Visiting Anif Castle is not easy, as it is private property, although exceptions were made for the filming of several Hollywood movies.

Mint lelkes Google idegenvezető megpróbáltam több irányból körbe járni de teljesen zárt magántulajdonban van. Évente két alkalommal van Misèvel egybe kötött körmenet ahhoz csatlakozva látogatható.

Schloss Anif is privately owned and not open to the public for visits. The surrounding perimetre is totally hidden by trees/shrubbery so its almost impossible to get a glimpse of this hidden gem. My Mum who now resides in Austria found out about the "Open Day" by enquiring with the local church in Anif. Twice a year, once in summer and once in winter, the gates are open and you are permitted with the church as part of their Corpus Christi service celebrations allowed to join them and enter the castle gates to view this stunning castle on the moat and attend the service. This year on the 19-06-25, we were fortunate enough to be able to join the procession and enter the private gates that are usually locked to the general public. Aside from being from the UK, this is very special for Austrians alike who also get to be a part of a special day and view this stunning castle for a short period of time. The castle is beautiful. Very much like a fairy tale movie. We followed the procession, stopping to take pictures along the way and joined everyone in the castle's courtyard for the Corpus Christi service which is fully in German. Afterwards, you follow the loop round back to the gate but there was ample time to take in the scenery and take many pictures before being ushered out. As part of the Corpus Christi celebrations, it only permits you entrance into the grounds and courtyard of the castle for the service, not the castle itself. A magical experience. It was really worth getting up early for. A hidden gem on the outskirts of Salzburg city. *NOTE* - On day of event - there are no toilets/refreshments provided so you have to be prepared if you are lucky enough to attend a service to join the procession to enter the castle gates to see Schloss Anif and attend the Corpus Christi service. You may not wander off of your own accord/no private tours/no visits to interior of the castle.
