  • Experience the Middle Ages Close up at Mauterndorf Castle
    2019 PRESS RELEASE Experience the Middle Ages close up at Mauterndorf Castle Salzburg’s favorite excursion destination for families celebrates the 500th anniversary of the death of the genius Leonardo da Vinci Hohenwerfen Fortress towers hundreds of meters above the Salzach valley. Over the centuries, it has served as a defensive fortification and prison. Today, it takes visitors on an adventurous journey back in time to the Middle Ages: from the creepy torture chamber, to the bell tower with its magnificent views, to the stunning birds of prey flight demonstrations. From medieval castle to family tourist attraction Hohenwerfen Fortress looks back on an eventful history: coinciding with the Hohensalzburg Fortress and the Friesach Castle in Carinthia, in 1077 its construction began under Archbishop Gebhard von Helfenstein. Great rulers and territorial lords were prisoners in the castle. During its varied history, the mighty fortress served as a movie set and gendarmerie school, until more than 30 years ago when Hohenwerfen Fortress was finally opened to visitors from all over the world. Since then, the castle has become one of the most popular attractions for families in the province of Salzburg. Guided tour of the fortress and lots of fun for kids As part of a guided tour, visitors get to know the castle in a fun way. Among the highlights of the tour is a visit to the creepy torture chamber or the fantastic view from the bell tower. For foreign-language visitors, an audio guide in 13 languages is available. For children, there is a funny audio-guide in German, Italian, English, Dutch, Danish and Hebrew.

  • Bibliographie BMÖ 24/2008
    Beiträge zur Mittelalterarchäologie in Österreich 24, 2008, S. 7-96. BIBLIOGRAPHIE ZUR ARCHÄOLOGIE DES MITTELALTERS IN ÖSTERREICH 1997-2007 von Monika DATTERL, Heinz GRUBER, Nikolaus HOFER, Elfriede Hannelore HUBER, Wilfried K. KOVACSOVICS, Karin KÜHTREIBER (Red.), Thomas KÜHTREIBER, Manfred LEHNER, Gabriele SCHARRER-LIŠKA (Red.), Kinga TARCSAY 1 2 3 Die erste 1980, von Fritz FELGENHAUER herausgegebene, Bibliographie fand 1986 und 1998 Fortsetzungen, wobei der dritte Teil von einem neu konstituierten Autorenteam verfasst wurde. Nun, zehn Jahre später, war es für das - fast unveränderte - Team von 1998 erneut an der Zeit, die seit der letzten Bibliographie erschienenen Publikationen zusammenzustellen4. Der nun vorliegende vierte Teil soll in bewährter Weise einen raschen Einstieg in das Fach und damit einen Überblick ermöglichen. Die Zitatensammlung zeigt aber auch, welche Wege die Mittelalterarchäologie in Österreich in den letzten zehn Jahren beschritten und in welche Richtung sie sich entwickelt hat. Der redaktionelle Zeitraum umfasst die Jahre 1997-2007. Die Überlappung mit dem dritten Teil der Bibliographie ist aufgrund des damaligen Redaktionsschlusses sowie erst verspätet erschienener Publika- tionen sinnvoll. Der Beginn des zeitlichen Rahmens der aufgenommenen Literatur liegt - wie schon bei den vorangegangenen Bibliographien - bei ca. 1000 n. Chr. (“Entstehung Österreichs”, Babenbergerherrschaft). Daneben wurden in Anbetracht der historischen Gegebenheiten der einzelnen Bundesländer zum Teil auch Arbeiten zur Karolingerzeit berücksichtigt.
