The castle was built in the 11th century by the bishops of Salzburg. Besides the castle and its dungeons, the big attraction is probably the falconry museum with its air shows. There is also a sizable collection of weapons on display.
Hohenwerfen Castle is a medieval rock castle, situated at an altitude of 623 metres (2,044 ft), on a 155-metre (509 ft) rock pillar overlooking the Austrian market town of Werfen in the Salzach valley, approximately 40 kilometres (25 mi) south of Salzburg. The fortress is surrounded by the Berchtesgaden Alps and the adjacent Tennen Mountains. Hohenwerfen is a "sister" of Hohensalzburg Fortress, both built by the Archbishops of Salzburg in the 11th century.
