Gurnitz Castle

The remains of the Castle can be visited

In the year 860, the castle and the town are mentioned in documents. The area was then gifted by King Ludwig to the Salzburg Archbishop Aldawin. Initially, it was royal property and only in the 11th century did it become a castle. From this point on, the owners bore the name of Gurnitz. Bernhard von Gurnitz was first documented in 1156.
