Schloss Rothschild
Seminar and special event location
This castle in Waidhofen an der Ybbs weds the cultural heritage of the region with contemporary technology, flexibility and hospitality. Originally a medieval fortress, the structure served in the 19th century as the home of the Rothschild family and was renovated by the renowned Austrian architect Hans Hollein for the Lower Austrian Exhibition of 2007. Since then, it has served in part as a venue for special events and in part as a museum.
This castle offers a unique setting. Two special highlights are the extravagant crystal hall, the newly refurbished "Schwarze Kuchl" (formerly a blacksmith's shop) and the glass cube perched on the castle tower. Also available for use are elegant salons, a castle cellar and idyllic outdoor areas.
