Falkenstein Castle (Niederfalkenstein)
Falkenstein Castle ((ドイツ語:Burg Falkenstein)) is a medieval castle complex near Obervellach in Carinthia, Austria. Situated on the southern slope of the Hohe Tauern mountain range, the former fortification of Oberfalkenstein today is a ruin, while the lower barbican of Niederfalkenstein is preserved. Niederfalkenstein is situated at an altitude of 843 meters.〔(Niederfalkenstein Altitude and Position )〕
==Location==
The fortification erected on a rocky promontory overlooks the Pfaffenberg settlement east of Obervellach. The Tauern Railway line, opened in 1909, initially passed under the rock in a long tunnel. In the course of the double-tracked expansion in 1973, the rail tunnel was replaced by a wide arch bridge, the present-day Falkenstein Bridge passing between Ober- and Niederfalkenstein, with the longest of the line.
The ruins of Oberfalkenstein comprise a ''Bergfried'' keep with surrounding moats and the foundations of a Romanesque palas. A chapel dedicated to John the Baptist was first mentioned in 1246, significantly enlarged in a Baroque style in 1772 and is still in use.
