Lackenbach Castle

The Lackenbach Castle ( Hungarian Lakompaki kastély ) as former moated castle is southeast of the town of Lackenbach in Burgenland , Austria .

The former moated castle was built by Erasmus Teuffl between 1548 and 1552 and expanded under Archbishop Nicolaus Oláh with the architect Geronimo Mariano. In 1618 the castle came into the possession of Count Nikolaus Esterházy . In 1806 the castle partially burned down, after which the north-west wing was not rebuilt. The moat is still partially preserved.

The castle consists of a two-storey main building with an elongated, ground-level farm building and an administrator's floor. The arched main portal still has the roles of the former drawbridge. There is a statue of the Virgin Mary and a double coat of arms Esterházy-Dersffy above the main portal .
