Landskron Castle

A castle and noble birds of prey

Landskron castle is located right next to the Affenberg Monkey Mountain so it is natural to visit both of these places during the same trip.

The castle is most know from it’s free flying birds show and the zoo for birds of prey. All birds have been bred by own and they have not been captured from the wild.  There will be arranged free flying eagle shows on the Adlerarena and at the same time you will get more information about the habits and behavior of the birds.

From the inner yard you can find a small, beautiful chapel that can be used for example for a wedding.

In the castle there is a cafe and a restaurant with a panorama terrace where you can have an awesome view over the town of Villach.
