The small world of large castles

Riegersburg

The castle show, housed in the historic building of the Meierhof zu Kornberg Castle, lets you immerse yourself in a fairytale world of a special kind. Castles and palaces from all over the world. In addition, there is a special exhibition "The world of ships".

"The small world of big castles".

A unique presentation of castles and palaces of the whole world in miniature size. Reproduced on a scale of 1:75 and 1:100, the miniatures were made with amazing accuracy to the smallest details of architecture, decor and landscape. Special lighting effects allow viewing by day, by night and at dawn. Special guided tours or audio guides in 6 languages provide more than 2 hours of interesting stories, legends and myths.

The second exhibit features "The World of Ships." New models Rudolf Klingohr are shown from the extensive collection of Peter Willowitzer - historical ship models from the 15th century to today. It is about the worldwide shipping. On display are many exciting models, such as the RMS Queen Mary. The model stood for many years in the departure hall at the Westbahnhof in Vienna. A scene from "Ein echter Wiender geht nicht unter" was also filmed there. Also on display is Austria's Titanic - "The Linz" - The 1:100 scale model was built by Rudolf Fischer for the ORF documentary "Tragedy in the Adriatic". Discover also the famous "Black Pearl".

There are combination tickets to visit the exhibitions and the adventure tour in Kornberg Castle. Children are invited to the game room.
