Ruine Plainburg
The original ancestral castle of the Counts of Plain is one of the oldest castle ruins in Austria. The emblem of Großgmain offers a magnificent view of the surrounding mountain world.
Several documents from the 15th to the 18th centuries confirm the ongoing maintenance work carried out at the castle, which, however, could not prevent the final decline of Plainburg at the beginning of the 19th century. Today, only the outer walls, which are over 5 meters high and on average 1.45 meters thick, the inner courtyard, and the entrance area with the gatehouse remain from the original structure. In the castle courtyard is one of the deepest wells in Austria.
