About

Once, the place where Mauterndorf now stands was a tax collection point for traders, which rather quickly grew into a four-story building with its own prison and fortified walls. The local elite wanted to protect themselves from enemies, so soon towers, battlements, and high fortress walls appeared, adorned with frescoes and coats of arms. Today, the castle is city-owned and functions as a museum. The interior decor is executed in a minimalist style, although occasionally one might find some stucco or an elegant alcove, near which, looking proudly at tourists, stands another painting by a famous artist.

Prachtige burcht. Bij binnenkomst een audiotour meegekregen om te beluisteren tijdens het bezoek. De verhalen zijn soms wat lang(dradig) maar dat is een kwestie van smaak. Ook voor kinderen was er voldoende te beleven. Zo kunnen zij zich verkleden (net als de ouders) en spelen op de speelplaats.

Castle is nicely renovated, unfortunately with focus on attractive look instead of historical building. More for children

Ein tolles Erlebnis, vor allem wurde alles kindgerecht aufbereitet. Allein schon dieTatsache, dass Kinder einen eigenen Audioguide bekommen fanden wir toll. Auch der Schaukampf war für die Kinder unterhaltsam anzusehen.
