I travelled by train because it is comfortable and the cheapest way to get to Leibnitz. The return ticket cost 40 euros. The distance between Zagreb and Leibnitz is about 120 kilometres only but the train ride is around 4 hours. There are several local stops but it is not the only reason why ride take so long. The first stop is soon before passing the border between Croatia and Slovenia, another long stop is in Maribor and the soon at Spielfeld in Austria. All this stops serving for embarkations of the local police and custom officers and the same routine is on a way back.

There is fine looking manor-house right next to the castle but right now in a pretty bad conditions. It is not abandoned, people still stay inside of it but doesn't seems they care much about the look of the house, or maybe they just not able to pay for its reconstruction. Too bad because to me it has even more attractive appearance then the castle itself.

Favorite thing: Leibnitz is very small town in southern Styria and it has no more then ten thousand inhabitants. The town has pretty long history and the first settlement around here dates from the Roman period. Just a few kilometres south is Leibnitz is location of Wagna where famous Roamn settlement Flavia Solva used to be.
Fondest memory: The town has nice and attractive central part where most of a must sites could be found. Everything here is in a walking distance, even Seggauschloss (Seggau Castle) which is situated on a top of a hill just 2 kilometres far from the center of Leibnitz.
