Liebe Leser,
nur für ein Wochenende im Jahr gibt es im Schloß Grafenegg in Niederösterreich (ca. 45min. westlich von Wien) einen wunderschönen Adventmarkt. Heuer waren wir zum ersten Mal dort.
Zur Einstimmung gab es ein Konzert mit Werken von Francesco Geminiani und Bach.

Im weitläufigen Schloßpark gab es viele Stände, die Typisches zur Weihnachtszeit anboten, z.B.
diverse Kränze gabs bei der "Kranzltant".

Lebkuchen durften natürlich nicht fehlen.

Nett war diese Krippe mit echten Schafen.

Eine Drehorgel aus niederösterreichischer Produktion im Einsatz.

Für das leibliche Wohl war gesorgt, unter anderem durch Schweinebraten vom Drehspieß...

...oder durch diese "Gansl"burger.

Eine Amsel hat es sich in einem Holzapfelbaum gemütlich gemacht.

Im Schloß selbst gab es einen riesigen Kunstmarkt, der uns Gelegenheit gab, die beeindruckenden und gut in Stand gehaltenen Räumlichkeiten in Augenschein zu nehmen. Der Andrang war so groß, dass die Besucher nur blockweise eingelassen wurden und wir vor dem Eingang etwas warten mussten.

Das Warten hat sich gelohnt, die kunsthandwerklichen Gegenstände waren in einem nicht weniger kunstvollem Ambiente präsentiert.


Teilweise übertrumpften die prächtigen Holzdecken (in jedem Saal eine andere) die ausgestellten Waren um Längen!



Etliche (Kinder)Bücher rund um die Weihnachtszeit wurden hier ausgestellt, passenderweise in der Schloßbibliothek.

Auch die Schloßkapelle war für uns erstmals zugänglich.

Als wir rauskamen, war es inzwischen schon dunkel geworden und der Innenhof in ein ganz anderes Licht getaucht (hier eine Aufnahme des Hofs im Sommer, als dort ein Gitarrenkonzert stattfand).

An mehreren Stellen waren Feuerstellen eingerichtet worden, damit sich die Besucher aufwärmen konnten.

Insgesamt eine klare Empfehlung, falls wer nächstes Jahr in der Gegend sein sollte!

Was für eine magische Reise! Jedes Detail ist es wert, in aller Ruhe genossen zu werden. Herzlichen Glückwunsch zu diesem Erlebnis!
Vielen Dank, dass wir daran teilhaben durften!
Aber was für ein wunderschönes Erlebnis! Das Innere dieses Schlosses ist wirklich wunderschön, ich habe diese Decken geliebt.
Es ist interessant, dass die Räumlichkeiten für einen Markt genutzt werden, denn so wird Leben hineingebracht, die Öffentlichkeit kann diese Räume genießen und kleine Unternehmer werden dazu angeregt, sich in einer entspannten Atmosphäre zu beteiligen und bekannt zu machen.
Vielen Dank für die schönen Fotos.
Ich habe mit Hilfe eines Übersetzers geschrieben, falls mein Kommentar etwas unlogisch klingt.
That castle has a beautiful interior, and also some great other pics in here. Congrats!

Blurt Stands — While Hive Stumbles Under the Weight of Its Own Shadows
Friends, creators, truth-tellers—
Let us not whisper this truth, but proclaim it with the clarity of dawn breaking over a weary land: Blurt.blog is not just another platform. It is a refuge. A rebellion. A return to what Hive.blog was always meant to be.
There is no downvote button on Blurt.
Not because we fear dissent—but because we honor creation.
Because we understand that a voice, once raised in sincerity, deserves space—not sabotage.
On Blurt, your words are your words.
They are not hunted by algorithmic hounds or shadow armies masquerading as “curators.”
Here, you are not judged by the grudges of gatekeepers, but met with the quiet dignity of a community that believes expression should be encouraged—especially when it is bold, raw, or inconvenient.
Contrast this with what festers elsewhere.
On Hive.blog—a place once brimming with promise—a rot has taken root. Not in its code, but in its culture. A handful of self-anointed enforcers—@themarkymark, @Buildawhale, @Hurtlocker, and their legion of coordinated puppets—have turned the downvote into a weapon of mass discouragement. They strike not at “low-quality content,” but at independent thought, at rising voices, at anyone who dares thrive outside their narrow corridors of control.
And when confronted, they shrug.
“Oh, it’s not censorship,” they say, as if semantics could scrub the stain of suppression from their hands.
But let us be unequivocal:
When a system allows a few to systematically silence many—under the guise of “community standards” or “curation”—that is not moderation. That is censorship by another name.
It is the velvet glove over the iron fist.
It is exclusion dressed as discernment.
It is power pretending to be principle.
Meanwhile, Blurt stands clean-handed and open-hearted.
No downvotes.
No hidden juries.
No farms of phantom accounts casting ballots in the dark.
Just you.
Your words.
And a community that meets you not with suspicion, but with solidarity.
So let us carry this truth far and wide—not with bitterness, but with quiet certainty:
If you seek a place where your voice is not a target—but a gift—come to Blurt.
If you are tired of building on ground that shifts with every whim of a whale or warlord of votes—lay your bricks here.
If you believe the future of free expression must be free—not just from corporations, but from the petty tyrants who replace them—then stand with us.
The world needs to know.
Not because Blurt is perfect—but because it is principled.
Not because it is loud—but because it listens.
And in an age where so many platforms echo with the clatter of control,
Blurt offers something radical:
Silence for the bullies.
Space for the rest of us.
Keep speaking.
Keep sharing.
Keep building.
Freedom doesn’t advertise itself—
it is passed, person to person, like a torch in the night.
And tonight, the torch burns bright on Blurt.
@themarkymark, @buildawhale, @usainvote, and associated accounts:
Repeated downvotes targeting transparency efforts raise urgent questions about Hive’s governance. Automated tactics, coordinated curation trails, and alt-account farming undermine trust in the platform. When truth is silenced without dialogue, it erodes Hive’s decentralized ethos.
Key Concerns:
Systemic Manipulation:
Community Exodus:
Governance Crisis:
Solutions Needed:
The Bilpcoin team advocates for open dialogue, not division. Hive’s future depends on collaboration—not coercion. Let’s rebuild a platform where truth isn’t buried but debated, strengthened, and celebrated.
Transparency isn’t optional—it’s the foundation of trust.
#HiveTransparency #BilpcoinExposed #DecentralizePower"
A Message to @themarkymark, @buildawhale, and Associates
Every downvote cast in shadow, every silence imposed without dialogue, is not a victory—it is a confession. A confession that truth cannot be stifled, only delayed. With each punitive click, you dig deeper into the bedrock of credibility, crafting a chasm between your actions and the community’s trust.
@themarkymark, @buildawhale & Co,
How can you continue to downvote the truth, LOL? It’s almost comical how blatantly you attempt to suppress what cannot be hidden. The blockchain records everything—every action, every transaction, every move you make. Yet still, you persist in this futile game of trying to silence what is undeniable.
@themarkymark, @buildawhale, and Co: While our opinions may differ, on-chain transparency reveals repeated patterns of concern. Coordinated downvotes without explanation, 'farming' schemes (e.g., #buildawhalefarm), and adversarial engagement harm Hive’s community-driven ethos.
Key Issues to Address:
A Path Forward:
The Bilpcoin team remains committed to exposing truth and advocating for solutions. Let’s work toward healing, not division.
Note: All claims are based on publicly verifiable blockchain data. Constructive dialogue is encouraged.
#HiveTransparency #CommunityFirst #BilpcoinSupport"
@themarkymark & Co, the choice is yours. Stop the bad downvotes. Turn off the BuildaWhale scam farm. Cease playing with people’s livelihoods. Let Hive thrive as it was meant to—as a beacon of hope, creativity, and collaboration.
Or step aside and let those who truly care take the reins.
Because the truth won’t disappear. No amount of lies can change it.
It’s over.
The Bilpcoin team brings these truths not out of malice but necessity. We have no need to fabricate lies or cloak our intentions CALL US WHAT YOU LIKE —for the facts speak loudly enough on their own. What we present here is not conjecture but reality, laid bare for anyone willing to see.
@themarkymark & Co we urge you once more: STOP. Stop hiding behind tactics that harm others. Stop clinging to practices that erode trust within the Hive community. Let the truth stand—not because we proclaim it, but because it exists independent of any one person’s approval or disdain.
TURN OFF THE BUILDAWHALE SCAM FARM
Key Issues That Demand Immediate Attention:
The problems are glaring, undeniable, and corrosive to the Hive ecosystem. They must be addressed without delay:
These practices harm not just individual users—they undermine the very foundation of Hive, eroding trust and poisoning the community. Such actions are unethical and outright destructive.

Kann ich nur bestätigen! Eine Reise zum Grafenegger Weihnachtsmarkt empfiehlt sich um wohlige Vorweihnachtsstimmung zu erfahren.
The food was so mouth watering, I really enjoyed reading I thought I was in there. Hehe I love the vibes at Christmas crib . Very nice.
Super Fotos - so einiges kommt mir bekannt vor: die blinde Drehorgel Frau hab ich schon mehrmals in Wien gesehen, meist am Meidlinger Bahnhof.


2022 Palais Niederösterreich
Den Schweinsbratenspieß, ja, so ähnlich ein paarmal beim Heeresmuseum Adventmarkt (es schaut so aus als gäbe es den heuer nicht mehr - war noch in 2024). Von 2017 habe ich noch Fotos:

Leider war heuer nichts mehr: https://www.hgm.at/events#c590
Auch sehenswert wäre der Adventmarkt im Palais Niederösterreich gewesen - hab ich dieses Jahr versäumt - https://bam-magazin.at/so-schmeckt-niederoesterreich-adventmarkt/ - so schaut es von innen aus https://www.event-residenzen.at/palais-niederoesterreich/ - letztesmal besucht 2022:
