If Strechau Castle were a knight, it would sit right next to the king at the Round Table. The second-largest castle in Styria is both a feast for the eyes and a fascinating place to explore. As well as breathtaking views, a beautiful castle chapel and a large wine cellar, visitors can also marvel at Europe’s most comprehensive collection of vintage Steyr cars. Yes, these classic cars are also part of Austria’s history.
A castle of unbeatable beauty
“Life’s surprises have unseated even the most confident knights,” Friedrich Schiller once said. It’s easy to imagine how the sight of Strechau Castle must have left many a knight speechless. This castle is simply breathtaking! The breathtaking view, the Baroque-style castle chapel, the massive wine cellar, and the Italian-style arcaded courtyard ensure that this fortress captures the hearts of all visitors—and not the other way around.
