Quick Facts Country, State ...

Rottenegg is surrounded by hilly country and is a good area for hiking, with excellent views. It once lay on a Via Regia, a medieval trade route.[1] The ruined castle is on a projecting rock promontory where the Kleinen Rodl enters the Großen Rodl river from the north, looking over the confluence. It guarded the old trade route.[2] The village puts on the Rottenegg Cultural Summer Program each year, which includes cabarets, concerts and plays.[1] The village is home to the Mühlviertler Heimatverein Rottenegg, a club that preserves folk dances and songs, and that puts on a play each year.[3] The hall at the leisure center is also used for other events.[4]
