Schönbühel Castle
As we continue along the Danube in Austria to our next destination of Melk we sail by this grand looking building. It is in fact Schönbühel Castle.
Constructed in the 12th century it is a great example of medieval architecture with a fascinating history. It was designed to guard the entrance to the Wachau Valley, a vital trade route along the Danube. In the 19th century, it underwent significant restoration into a neo-Gothic residence. Its current appearance reflects centuries of architectural evolution, blending Gothic, Romanesque, and Baroque elements.

Enjoy the day.

I like the way the walls of the castle blend into the underlying rock face and how the foliage has grown up around it.
