Old Castle Kittsee

To be privately owned

The origins of this former moated castle date back to the 12th century. Emperor Frederick I Barbarossa's crusader army gathered here in 1198, awaiting permission to pass through Hungary. The former moated castle played no role in this, but it must have existed for a long time.
