Rövid leírás

This short route of the Bourbon Trail provides historical insights into the time of the Bourbons in Frohsdorf and the decades-long beneficial work of the last legitimate French king, Henry V, Count of Chambord, through display panels over 1.6 km.

Leírás

The focus of the Bourbon Trail is the decades-long beneficial work of the last legitimate French king, Henry V, in the person of the Count of Chambord (1820–1883) and his aunt Marie Thérèse Charlotte de Bourbon, Duchess of Angoulême (1778–1851), for Lanzenkirchen.

The life’s work of the Count of Chambord, who lived in exile in Frohsdorf in Austria from 1844 to 1883, extends far beyond the feudal Frohsdorf Castle: the foundation for the Sta. Christiana Frohsdorf school was laid by his aunt, the Duchess of Angoulême. A walk along the Bourbon Trail will give you historical insights into this time and you can discover many more Bourbon traces in Lanzenkirchen, including the Lilienhof, Sta. Christiana school, etc.

Utak leírása Winter hiking on the Bourbon Trail Lanzenkirchen

The starting point of the Bourbon Trail is located at the Grandhotel Niederösterreichischer Hof, where the first sign with a description of the themed trail is located. The route continues towards Frohsdorf to the next stop, the St. Christiana Monastery, which is now used as a school. At the Felix Chapel, turn right. This chapel was rebuilt in 1859 by Countess Maria Theresia, the wife of Count Heinrich von Chambord. On the altar in the center stands the crowned Madonna with the child Jesus, to her right Saint Felix of Cantalice, a Capuchin brother who died in Rome in 1587. To the left of Maria is the figure of King Louis IX of France, whose cloak lining is decorated with Bourbon lilies.

Following the road, the path leads to the next station: the New House. Then turn left, where Frohsdorf Castle awaits. The Bourbons once resided here. After the castle follows the sixth and final station of the short route: the Frohsdorf Boys' School. There, turn left again and follow the road until you reach the starting point, the parking lot of the Grandhotel Niederösterreichischer Hof, once again.

The entire Bourbon Trail is 5 km long.
