Finkenstein castle ruins

The Finkenstein castle ruins rise majestically on Kanzianiberg above Faaker See and are a popular trip destination for all ages, affording an imposing view from up there. Finkenstein Castle was built in the 12th century and offered a good overview over the surroundings, allowing enemies to be spotted quickly.

The ruin is not only worth a visit as an excursion destination with a view over Lake Faak and the surrounding area. Especially for events and concerts, the ruin offers a unique ambience that is second to none. A diverse program with stars from all over the world is perfect for balmy summer evenings in the sunny south. For those who want to be pampered with culinary delights, the Burgschenke offers the culinary pampering program of the extra class.
