Castle walls with fourteen sequential gates

The governor George fon Khevenhuller was so afraid of the Turks attack, that he strongly fortified the castle with the walls and fourteen sequential gates on the way to the top. Due to such fortifications no one could capture the Hochosterwitz Castle and it preserved its historical view to our days.
