The castle has a special place in the heart of the ducal family of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha. Acquired by Duke Ernst I in 1823, it served as an Austrian residence and hunting lodge for subsequent generations.

Visitors can enjoy a tour of the castle's historic ceremonial rooms:

• the magnificent arcaded courtyard,

• the castle chapel.

Programs for School Groups

The small house community of St Anthony's House tries to walk a "pilgrimage to the sources of faith" and to discover the sources of life together with the guests: in the Liturgy of the Hours, in the celebration of the liturgy, in Eucharistic adoration, in silence, in living from the Word of God, in conversation...

We welcome individual guests and groups. We are happy to organise retreats and days of reflection for closed groups. Above all, however, St. Anthony's House invites individuals to days of silence, reflection, individual retreats and holidays in the monastery all year round.

The town fountain on Grein's historic town square, also known as the Meaggaubrunnen, dates back to 1872 and was named after Count Leonhard Helfrich Meggau, who owned Greinburg Castle. The citizens of Grein erected a stone monument in the town square to Count Meggau, who was socially committed to the people of Grein.

Seit mehr als 500 Jahren thront Schloss Greinburg, das älteste Wohnschloss Österreichs, majestätisch über der Stadt Grein und der Donau.

Es wurde zwischen 1488 und 1495 mit der kaiserlichen Bewilligung von Kaiser Friedrich III. von Heinrich und Siegmund Prüschenk erbaut und war eines der ersten Schlösser im deutschsprachigen Raum. Das Schloss hat einen besonderen Platz im Herzen der herzoglichen Familie von Sachsen-Coburg und Gotha. 1823 von Herzog Ernst I. erworben, diente es den folgenden Generationen als österreichischer Wohnsitz und als Jagdresidenz.

Built as a late Gothic building, dedicated to St. Ägidius. The altarpiece created by Bartolomeo Altomonte depicts St. Ägidius with the hind and is framed by a lively baroque structure. Magnificent pulpit with the four church fathers, which was donated by the lady of the castle Anna von Dietrichstein in 1679. Interesting gravestones and tombstones.
