The castle Wasserburg is situated 45 km west of Vienna, the capital of Austria. Nearby is the Danube valley "Wachau", with its famous vineyards, monasteries, castles and small old villages - one of the most beautiful parts of the country and perfect for sightseeing tours.
The history of the castle of Wasserburg goes back as far as the 12th century.Today it presents itself as a romantic baroque castle surrounded by a lovely pond -once the moat - inhabited by all kinds of ducks and other waterbirds as well as lots of fish. Thoroughbred horses graze in paddocks in the historical park in the shade of enourmous old trees and you will find many romantic spots for picknics.
