Fire damage on the roof of the tavern

We had to close our tavern

Our tavern, situated on the premises of Luberegg Castle, became a victim of the flames that damaged the roof. Several fire brigades could avoid further damage. We thank all helping hands for showing their support in this time.

Our inn will therefore be closed until further notice. We will be happy to offer you a table at the Hotel Donauhof or at the Landhotel Wachau. We look forward to your reservation under +43 2752 71777
