Beethoven Museum Heiligenstadt
In the early 19th century, Heiligenstadt was a small wine-producing village.
It began to grow when its new healing baths started attracting many guests, including famous representatives of Vienna’s cultural life. Ludwig van Beethoven came seeking healing or at least an improvement of his advancing deafness.
The Beethoven Museum Heiligenstadt sheds light on the composer’s life and works, reflecting new research.
Forchtenstein Castle
Built in the 14th century, Forchtenstein Castle is one of the most important landmarks of Burgenland. In 1622, Nicholas Esterházy received overlordship of Forchtenstein and Eisenstadt. The fortress underwent complete reconstruction and got the appearance it has today. In 1713, as a result of political and military changes, the castle’s function changed as well. Treasures and curiosities were housed in its treasury and the castle served as an arsenal for the troops.
