'''Liechtenstein Castle''' is a [[castle]] located near [[Maria Enzersdorf]] in [[Lower Austria]] bordering [[Vienna]]. It is located on the edge of the [[Vienna Woods|Wienerwald]] (Viennese Forest). The castle, originally built during the 12th century, was destroyed by the [[Ottomans]] in 1529 and 1683, and remained in ruins until 1884, when it was rebuilt.
 
Liechtenstein ("bright stone") Castle is the origin of the name of the [[List of princes of Liechtenstein|Liechtenstein family]], the ruling house of the [[Liechtenstein|country of the same name]], which owned the castle from at least 1140 until the 13th century and again from 1807 onwards.
