Reiteregg Castle

Initially, the castle consisted of two adjoining buildings. The gables are designed as so-called stepped gables. The originally covered tower is fortified with battlements. The castle also has a castle chapel dedicated to the Virgin Mary. The castle chapel consists of an oratory and a sacristy. A plague column stands at the entrance to the castle. The original column was destroyed by a falling tree, and today an identical copy stands in its place. This copy, with a copper roof, is decorated with fruit and flower garlands, and figures of saints are placed in the four niches. The figures depict Saint Sebastian, Saint Urban, Saint Francis, and Saint Anthony. Slightly away from the castle is a mausoleum of the Haan family.

Reiteregg Castle was built in the 17th century and at that time consisted of two adjoining buildings. Previously, there was a farmstead on the site that can be traced back at least to the second half of the 16th century. In 1660, Ferdinand Ignaz Freiherr von Moscon acquired the property and expanded it. During the rule of the Moscon family, among other things, the castle chapel was built. In 1871, the Moscon family sold the castle to Leopold Reichsfreiherr von Haan, who further expanded the castle and gave it its current appearance. Among other things, he had the roof of the tower removed and fortified it with battlements. He also built a mausoleum for his family. In the interwar period, the vineyards of the estate were replaced by pastureland. During the Second World War, no Russian troops were quartered in the castle, which is why the original furnishings are still largely preserved. To this day, the estate remains in the possession of the Haan family.

There is a legend that Reiteregg Castle is connected to Schütting Castle by an underground passage. To this day, no evidence of such a passage has been found.
