The Friedensburg Schlaining was first mentioned in documents in 1271 as "castrum Zloynuk" and was at that time owned by the Counts of Güssing. Only gradually did the name evolve before it was officially known by its current name in 1786. In the 15th century, the castle came into the possession of the knight Andreas Baumkircher.
Experience the diverse history of the Friedensburg Schlaining under the guiding principle "From Fortress to Peace Castle". In the picturesque backdrop of the castle, visitors are taken on a journey through six immersive and interactive exhibitions - from the times of the medieval fortress to the center of peace.
