Ruine Massenburg

Leoben

At the Massenburg ruins enjoy a fantastic view of Leoben through the lookout.

Directly from the Jakobikirche via Dirnböckweg and Massenbergstrasse, after a short walk, you can reach the inner courtyard of the Massenburg ruins through the former gate building.

An imposing gate building and remains of buildings worth seeing have been preserved to this day and are also used for music and theater events. A viewing platform offers a magnificent view of Leoben and the surrounding mountains.

The name "Massenburg" is first documented for the 12th century. An extensive expansion took place around the middle of the 16th century. In 1820 the castle was completely demolished, except for some wall remains. In 1998/1999, remains of the ruins were uncovered and the remains of the castle underwent a general renovation. Besides, the Massenburg is the starting point for various hiking tours.
