Schloss Ebergassing

In the east of Ebergassing stands the castle, a former moated castle, which was first mentioned in a document in 1120. Under the Princes of Liechtenstein, the complex underwent two Baroque expansion phases around 1720 and 1760. A musical trace leads to the late 18th century: Therese von Trattner, whose family owned the castle from 1788 to 1811, was one of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s first pupils. He dedicated the Sonata in C minor, KV 457, and the Fantasy in C minor, KV 475, to her.

The Musik im Schloss association continues this tradition, organising the Salon Batik concert series since 2019 under the artistic direction of pianist Roland Batik. Performances take place in the Salon, the castle chapel, and the ballroom, with a programme ranging from piano recitals to chamber music and jazz.

In addition, the castle, which is privately owned, is the venue for the HOME music festival and concerts such as Saitenvielfalt.
