Gföhl was first mentioned in documents around 1180 and looks back on a long history as a market town and centre of the Waldviertel. The most important milestones Antiquity and settlement: Prehistoric finds (like from the Bronze Age) prove early traces of humans on the Gföhl plateau. Before German settlement from the 12th century onwards, there was a Slavic presence. First mention (1180): The place name is presumably derived from a topographical depression in the ground. Elevation to market town (1314/1493): In 1314, Gföhl is mentioned as a market town. In 1493, Emperor Frederick III granted the town official market rights and a coat of arms. War hardship and crises: In 1426, the Hussites destroyed the town and church. The population also suffered severely during the Peasants' War (1595) and the Thirty Years' War (1645), as well as from the plague (1679/1681).

No Merlot here — the shelf stands empty, quiet, waiting for a bottle that never comes. Kein Merlot hier — das Regal bleibt leer, still, wartend auf eine Flasche, die nie kommt. Pas de Merlot ici — l'étagère reste vide, silencieuse, attendant une bouteille qui n'arrive jamais. No hay Merlot aquí — el estante queda vacío, silencioso, esperando una botella que nunca llega.

The Krumau am Kamp castle is privately owned today and serves as a residence, which is why the interior rooms cannot be publicly viewed.

A trip to Jaidhof Castle is particularly worthwhile due to the combination of historical architecture, spiritual tranquility, and nature experience.

After historical decay, the complex was extensively renovated in the 20th century through private initiative and saved from ruin status. As it is privately owned, it can usually only be viewed from the outside.
