Walk · 1 h 30 · free · a walled town of the 13th century beside the Danube, 5 km from Carnuntum

Hainburg preserves almost all of its medieval wall, with its gates. The Ungartor, the Hungarian Gate, is the oldest: Romanesque, from about 1230. The small Fischertor, for pedestrians only, recalls the massacre of 1683, during the second Turkish siege, when almost the whole town died trying to flee through it; the street that leads down to it is called the Blutgasse. In the main square is the Haydnbrunnen: Joseph Haydn lived here as a child, from 1738 to 1740, with a relative who taught him music. Above the town, a path climbs to the ruin of the Schlossberg castle, with views of the Danube.
