At the border to the Czech Republic, in the Thayatal, visitors can catch a glimpse of the past. Through thick forests one drives down the steep serpentine roads into a town where time stood still. The town of Hardegg offers a particularly picturesque image. It lies harmoniously in the narrow basin of the Fugnitz, dominated by a proud castle that looks back on over thousand years of history. At that time, Hardegg was the centre of a dominion in northern Austria. The owners of castle Hardegg played an important political role in the country.

Today Hardegg is the smallest town in Austria. About 80 people currently have their main residence in this border town at the Thaya. Hardegg is probably the only town in Austria with more houses than inhabitants.
