    Very peaceful location. Be prepared to walk a bit if you want to see the whole park. Best to get there in the late afternoon.

    The place feels like it’s out of a Disney movie. The museum is only available with a tour for 11 euros but the tour is interesting and the inside of the castle is surprisingly beautiful. It also has a shop and a free toilet.

    Excellent day out. It's quite the journey to the outskirts of Vienna with kids but they enjoyed it the most. We hired a boat and went around the lake and then had a wander around the grounds. There's history to this place so we would have benefitted from some literature RE Maria Therese

    The stuff is genuinely friendly. We were there today with two (loud) 7 year-olds and they had so much fun exploring the area. I couldn’t recommend it more! You could see people of all age groups. The place offers all sorts of attractions, so there really seems so be something for everyone. Enjoy (:

    The castles in an idyllic park. You can stay a while and recharge your batteries. You can take a long walk through the woods and meadows or along the water, park benches invite you to linger. There is also a playground and electric boats to borrow, a café and a snack bar. The park offers many beautiful subjects for photos and you can walk for several hours and enjoy nature.

    I must visit location. Guided tours on the hour. No photos allowed inside. Clean modern restrooms at the castle. The cafe is good for lunch but can get busy.

    (Translated by Google) The park is fine, the castle itself has development potential but has not been used for years. The gastronomy and the toilets, honestly I do not understand the indifference of those responsible and the owner, a real disaster. Pity! (Original) Die Parkanlage ist ganz in Ordnung, die Burg selbst hat Entwicklungspotenzial bleibt aber seit Jahren ungenützt. Die Gastronomie und die Toiletten, ehrlich ich verstehe die Gleichgültigkeit der Verantwortlichen und des Eigentümers nicht, eine echte Katastrophe. Schade!

    It's in Laksenburg even if you habe to pay to get in this cool park is worth it for a day, is was 2.8€ (euro) at that time, the castle is very interesting and has a nice View, people uses this place also for going to the toilet and it has wheelchair access. It's nicely hold and in the center of the park. Can recommend it to vizit at least one time.

    (Translated by Google) The food in the castle restaurant is okay, but also nothing special and the staff is very far away from friendly. (Original) Das Essen im Burgrestaurant ist in Ordnung, aber auch nichts besonderes und das Personal ist von freundlich sehr weit weg.

  • 5/5 Khurram I. 2 years ago on Google
    Such a mesmerising please. Its surrounded by water so you can rent a boat and roam around. But apart from the lake (which is called the greay pond) , castle itself is worth seeing. A wooden boat bridge is used to access this place and it cost 0.75 euros per person. But you can also walk around and access it by feet There is a nice resturent inside with the view of the lake Place is mostly not so crowded and you feel calm when there I recommend to take your water bottles with you as water will cost some money from resturent

  • 5/5 Bolivar De S. 3 years ago on Google
    Just marvelous. I was with my girlfriend and we went for a walk with stops, enjoying scenery. A lot of very old trees, just beautiful forest, park, castle. We saw several jung deers. Just remarkable. Entrance is about € 2-3 per person. You can send a whole day there easily. There is hugh playground for children as well, perfect for families as well. Would recommend it in spring time.

    Beautiful park, with a gorgeous Castle (Laxenburg) in a small island. Large property to walk and admire the nature and quietness of the place.

  • 5/5 Tibor U. 5 years ago on Google
    Nice place, especially for family with children. The boating and Fransensburg is a must-see experience. The playground is the favorite point for children.

  • 5/5 Hynek P. 5 years ago on Google
    Nice small castle. It’s beautiful from outside, best view behind moat. Admission fee for park is around 2.6€ and transfer over water is for 0.6€. Park is huge and little bit boring, otherwise there also some other nice monuments and places. Recommend it if you’re nearby gardens. In park I spend less then 2 hours.

  • 5/5 Jarosław B. 11 months ago on Google
    Very nice castle to visit (even if it was build quite recently despite the look of it). Located on the beautiful island surrounded by even more impressive park. You can take a walk around, rest a bit in the provided double sunbeds. There is a restaurant in the castle and the toilet and you can get there by small ferry. All available for people in wheelchair.

  • 5/5 Thomas J. 10 months ago on Google
    This is a small yet beautiful and well maintained castle surrounded by water. There are several small shops and restaurants for catching some refreshments. It also is a nice area for relaxing and for scenic walks. Plan on some extra time here to enjoy every bit :)

  • 5/5 The Vegan B. 9 months ago on Google
    The castle and its park are wonderful! I highly recommend to rent a boat and make a round of the lake.

  • 5/5 Elena T. 6 months ago on Google
    This is a tiny commune with a large imperial park in English style Schlosspark, and a doll-like romantic castle on the shore of the lake. No one has ever lived in this castle. It was built for Emperor Franz I, Napoleon's father-in-law. Emperor Franz visited there to drink coffee with distinguished guests, enjoy the surrounding beauty and show off a little. Therefore, the castle is decorated in the style of “modest splendor.” The rooms are small, the ceilings are not palace-like, but everything is very elegant and very expensive. The park around is magical. I highly recommend it.

    (Translated by Google) Beautiful surroundings, nice park, excellent excursion place for children. It is also perfect for walking, cycling and boating. Sissi also stayed here many times, the honeymoon was also spent here. It has been owned by the Habsburgs since 1333. Here they built their hunting and resting castle. The castle was demolished by the Turks in 1683, but was rebuilt 10 years later, in the time of Leopold I. The emperor and his court also attracted the nobility. The highlight of court life was reached in the time of Maria Theresa in the 18th century: the performances, entertainment and competitions of the Burgtheater in Vienna defined social life. (Original) Gyönyörű környezet, szép park, kiváló kirándulóhely gyerekeseknek is. Sétálni, biciklizni, csónakázni is tökéletes. Sissi is sokszor tartózkodott itt, a nászutat is itt töltötték. 1333 óta a Habsburgok tulajdona volt. Itt építették fel vadász- és pihenőkastélyukat. A várat a törökök 1683-ban lerombolták, azonban már 10 év múlva újjáépült, I. Lipót idején. A császár és udvara maga után vonzotta a nemességet is. Az udvari élet fénypontját Mária Terézia idejében érte el a 18. században: a bécsi Burgtheater előadásai, szórakozás, versenyek határozták meg a társadalmi életet.

    The interior of the castle is very impressive. The castle has always been conepted as some kind of museum and different parts of the interior were taken from other royal or church buildings around the area of the Austrian Empire. The old painted glass windows are astonishing as well, as they are in use for almost 200 years and didn't need bigger renovations yet.

    Nice food inside, the soup was way too salty though. Wasn't a big problem, but it was very hot outside and I'd rather have something more hydrating.

    (Translated by Google) Laxenburg is the favorite spring-autumn residence of the Habsburgs, where Emperor Franz Joseph I and his wife Sisi spent their honeymoon. The hunting castle was built here in the XII century, then it was reconstructed several times and is now known as the Old Palace. At the beginning of the 19th century, on the island in the middle of one of the ponds, a "toy" castle Franzensburg was built, stylized as a medieval fortress. The large park is a good place to walk. You can go boating on the ponds. In the cafe you can dine or have a coffee with strudel. In general, Laxenburg is a pleasant place in every respect, which is why Viennese people love it. There is a fee to enter, but the price is reasonable. (Original) Лаксенбург - любимая весенне-осенняя резиденция Габсбургов, где провели свой медовый месяц император Франц-Иосиф I и его супруга Сиси. Охотничий замок здесь был построен в XII веке, потом неоднократно реконструировался и сейчас известен как Старый дворец. В начале XIX века на острове посреди одного из прудов был построен замок-"игрушка" Франценсбург, стилизованный под средневековую крепость. Большой парк - хорошее место для прогулок. По прудам можно покататься на лодке. В кафе можно пообедать или выпить кофе со штруделем В общем, Лаксенбург - место, приятное во всех отношениях, поэтому его любят венские жители. Вход платный, но цена разумная.

    (Translated by Google) Beautiful castle on an artificial island, in the middle of the Laxenburg castle park. You can either get to the castle by ferry (costs 70 cents per person) or by bridge from the other side. There are guided tours in the castle, either for individuals or for groups. There is also a café in the complex, where you can sit close to the water and have a wonderful view. (Original) Wunderschöne Burg auf einer künstlichen Insel, mitten im Schlosspark Laxenburg. Man gelangt entweder über eine Fähre (kostet 70 Cent pro Person) oder über eine Brücke von der anderen Seite in die Burg. Es gibt Führungen in der Burg, entweder für Einzelpersonen, oder für Gruppen. Weiters befindet sich ein Café in der Anlage, dort kann man nah am Wasser sitzen und man hat einen herrlichen Ausblick.

    (Translated by Google) Castle tour today at 3 p.m. It was the last guided tour through Franzensburg with the lady of the house. Our highly motivated guide answered the children's questions, told many exciting and funny stories that captivated the children's attention and also asked many questions. It was not a single second bland. The history of the museum was told with fascination, so that the adults and the children never noticed how quickly 1 hour can pass. My son (9 years) enjoyed it very much, although he usually doesn't stay attentive for so long. Sooo it should be! In addition to the castle, there is also a roof tour in the Franzensburg. Thanks again and see you soon. (Original) Burgführung heute um 15 Uhr. Es war die letzte geführte Tour durch die Franzensburg mit der Dame des Hauses. Unser hochmotivierter Guide beantwortete die Fragen der Kinder, erzählte viele spannende und lustige Geschichten die die Aufmerksamkeit der Kinder fesselte und stellte auch viele Fragen. Fad war es keine einzige Sekunde. Mit Faszination wurde die Geschichte des Museums erzählt, sodass die Erwachsenen und die Kinder gar nicht bemerkt haben, wie schnell 1 Stunde vergehen kann. Meinen Sohn (9 Jahre) hat es sehr gefallen, obwohl er normalerweise nicht so lange aufmerksam bleibt. Sooo soll es sein! Es gibt neben der Burg- auch eine Dächerführung in der Franzensburg. Nochmals vielen Dank und bis bald.
