The Wachau region is renowned for its culinary treasures, which change with the seasons – from fresh asparagus in spring and juicy apricots in summer to hearty autumn specialties such as pumpkin and venison.
One of the region’s most famous delights is the traditional apricot dumpling, best enjoyed at the Schloss Greisslerei and the Restaurant Schloss Dürnstein – a sweet indulgence that makes the Wachau truly unforgettable.

Start your day with a relaxed breakfast at the Schloss Greisslerei or at Hotel Schloss Dürnstein. For lunch or dinner, we recommend the à la carte Restaurant Schloss Dürnstein, which is open daily. During the summer months, the Grillheuriger Küffer Keller at the western end of Dürnstein offers an idyllic setting by the pond – perfect for a BBQ dinner or a leisurely aperitif.
