Burg Strechau
Strechau Castle is the second largest fortification in Styria. It was remodeled into a Renaissance castle in the middle of the 16th century. Strechau Castle houses an impressive collection of historical automobiles in its baroque granary. Vintage car exhibition, castle tour incl. special exhibition.
The special exhibition “NEW SPIRIT AND ABERRATION – Burg Strechau as a crucible of the confessional struggle” shows the rise and fall off Protestantism, which was closely tied to Burg Strechau. The highlight of the exhibition is undoubtedly the so-called “gmalln Gewelb”, a room whose painted ceiling from 1579 has been preserved. A children’s quiz turns any visit to the castle into an exciting experience for the youngsters as well.
