Built below the medieval stronghold of Kreuzenstein, Leobendorf grew into a Lower Austrian municipality near the northern bank of the Danube, between Vienna and the Weinviertel. Kreuzenstein Castle crowns a wooded hill above the settlement; destroyed during the Thirty Years’ War, it was reconstructed from 1874 by Count Johann Nepomuk Wilczek. Its deliberately medieval appearance and collections make it one of the area’s most recognisable landmarks. Vineyards and open agricultural country connect Leobendorf with the wider Weinviertel.
