You will find relaxation in the castle café.

The labyrinth at Rosegg Castle

The largest garden labyrinth in Austria was opened between the castle and the Rosegg Zoo in July 2001. More than 3000 hornbeams form a hedge of one kilometer length on an area of 2.400 square meters. A tower in the center serves as an orientation point.

The labyrinth is a classic element of garden design and flourished in England in the 17th and 18th centuries. There were also garden labyrinths in Austria, the most important of them at Schönbrunn in Vienna. In Rosegg, a large English park existed from 1776, which belonged to the castle. It was located on an island in the river Drava and was destroyed by a flood around 1825.

Right next to the labyrinth are the castle and the largest Carinthian zoo, the Rosegg Zoo. The three excursion destinations are among the most popular in all of Carinthia and promise an eventful, exciting day in any weather!
