History & Panorama.

Burg Landskron is one of Carinthia's most impressive excursion destinations, towering above Lake Ossiach and offering a breathtaking panorama of the Villach Alps, the Gailtal Alps and the Carawankas. Even the way up offers a special combination of nature and history.

Built in the 16th century, the Renaissance castle stands on the foundations of a 14th-century fortress and today serves as a cultural jewel box. Walking between the massive stone walls, the world of the Middle Ages comes to life: knights, noble families and the everyday life of the past.

A special experience is offered by Affenberg, where about 180 Japanese macaques live in a 4.5-hectare free-run park. Guided tours will see them up close, as experts talk about their habits and everyday life – an experience that will be unforgettable for children and adults alike.

Another big attraction is the Adlerarena Burg Landskron, where eagles, falcons and owls demonstrate their flying skills at spectacular raptor shows – with a stunning panorama of the Carinthian mountains in the background.

Whether it's culture, animals or nature experiences, Burg Landskron offers a varied programme for all ages.
