caption_attribution_description: Deutsch: Südwestansicht der Burg Güssing in der burgenländischen Bezirkshauptstadt Güssing. Eine auf einem weithin sichtbar steilen Kegel vulkanischen Ursprungs Mitte des 12. Jahrhunderts errichtete Burg und damit älteste Burg Burgenlands. Im 16. und 17. Jahrhundert erfolgte der Ausbau zu einer Festung. Wegen der "Dachsteuer" gab man sie im 18. Jahrhundert dem Verfall preis. Seit 1957 wird eine Bestandssicherung betrieben und 1969 wurde das neue Burgmuseum eröffnet. &#160; This media shows the protected monument with the number 28717 in Austria. (Commons, de, Wikidata)
context_page_description: The Küszén Abbey was a short-lived Benedictine Christian monastery on the top of the mountain Küszén in the medieval Kingdom of Hungary. The monastery was established by German-born knight Wolfer, forefather of the powerful Kőszegi family. It was subordinated to the Pannonhalma Archabbey. After a few decades of operation, Béla III of Hungary confiscated the monastery from the Benedictine friars and erected a castle in place of the abbey around 1180.
