		Castle ruins, Hausberg, Ödes Castle ObjectID:  8445	Location KG: Rechnitz	The ruins of Ödes Castle are located on a prominent protrusion above the bathing lake Rechnitz in Faludital, and can be reached via a marked footpath or a forest road. The complex consisted of a mighty high structure, which was surrounded by a ring ditch and a ring wall as well as a kind of outer bailey and was only accessible from the northwest. Today all of this has fallen into disrepair and covered with high forest. The "Barren Castle" has historical evidence that it had to be surrendered in the year 1289 after a long siege as part of the " Güssing feud " of Count Ivan against Duke Albrecht I of Austria and Styria. After the peace agreement with the Hungarian King Andreas III. the complex was partially destroyed by order of Duke Albrecht I. In the 15th century it was taken by Emperor Friedrich III. , for the siege and conquest by King Matthias Corvinus and for sale. The castle subsequently lost its importance, as the castle was expanded in the village. In the second half of the 19th century, the county administration ordered the destruction of the "Barren Castle" in order to "eliminate the possibility of hiding places for thieves".
