description
Walkersdorf is located in the valley of the Kamp, just under 1 km northwest of Etsdorf am Kamp. Today's three-wing, two-storey building, which forms a courtyard of honor, dates from the end of the 18th century. The main front facing the settlement shows classicist building elements that accentuate the otherwise very sober, modernly shaped building. Today it houses apartments, a winery and a wine tavern.
