HISTORY

"Qui bon vin boit, Dieu voit." (Proverb of the Zisterzienser monks)

The very early history of the castle Gobelsburg and its vineyards is an unwritten story as with many similar estates in Austria. Archeological excavations in one of our vineyards (Grub) and at the occasion of a major extension of the chateau's vaults have released many traces of settlements in eolithic, bronze and iron age, the Roman empire and early medieval periods.
