Roiten is a small village close to Rappottenstein and for fans of the austrian painter Friedensreich Hundertwasser this village has a lot of unique exhibits to be seen only there :
Hundertwasser was living inside a small hut in the woods there - see it in my first 2 photos here - a hut without running water or electricity , and many of his famous paintings were made, while Hundertwasser was sitting on a small island in the tiny river in front of his house.
The building of Dorfmuseum Roiten was re-decorated by Hundertwasser in his typical style and another house next to it has a small museum inside with lots of photos, a pyjama by Hundertwasser, his moped etc.
the museums are open for visitors:
May till September: Fri till Sun & Holidays: 02.00pm - 04.30pm
and groups from 5 persons or more upon reservation!

a great castle, 70km north-west of Vienna

This castle is about 70km north-west of vienna and you will need a car to get there ! Combine it with a visit at Roiten for some great museums by and about Hundertwasser.
