About Castle Liechtenstein

Liechtenstein Castle is a fortress near Maria Enzersdorf in Lower Austria bordering Vienna. It is on the threshold of the Wienerwald. The citadel, firstly built at some point of the 12th century, became destroyed by way of the Ottomans in 1529 and 1683, and remained in ruins until 1884, while it turned into rebuilt. Liechtenstein Castle is the foundation of the call of the Liechtenstein circle of relatives, the ruling house of the us of a of the equal name, which owned the fortress from at least 1140 until the thirteenth century and once more from 1807 onwards. Today, the fort is in non-public ownership and is in particular recognised for the Nestroy Theatre Festival held annually for the duration of the summer months.

The 1969 movie A Walk with Love and Death, the 1971 movie The Vampire Happening, the 1979 film The Fifth Musketeer, and the 1993 film The Three Musketeers featured shots of the fort. The Three Musketeers is a 1993 Austrian-American action-adventure comedy film from Walt Disney Pictures, Caravan Pictures, and The Kerner Entertainment Company, directed through Stephen Herek from a screenplay by David Loughery. It stars Charlie Sheen, Kiefer Sutherland, Chris O'Donnell, Oliver Platt, Tim Curry, and Rebecca De Mornay.
