A trip through Burgenland wouldn’t be complete without taking photos of storks. One can see their nests on many roofs in the easternmost state of Austria. Coincidentally, I found the nest with the most storks on top of a house that bore the name Burgenland.

‘Big’ surprise at a Heuriger in Burgenland: At the Schnitzelheuriger Posch, I got this large portion of Tafelspitz. It is a traditional Austrian dish made of beef.

At Deutschkreutz Castle (Schloss Deutschkreutz), I had a guided tour by its owner Anton Lehmden. He was a member of the Vienna School of Fantastic Realism. You find many of his works in the rooms of the castle.
