Ritterburg Lockenhaus is a medieval castle located in the Burgenland region of Austria. Originally constructed in the 13th century, it underwent significant renovations in the 16th and 17th centuries. The castle has served various purposes throughout its history, including a fortress and a residential estate. In 1991, it became the home of the Lockenhaus Chamber Music Festival founded by violinist Lukas Hagen. The festival utilizes the castle’s unique acoustics and intimate setting to showcase chamber music performances.
