We have arrived in Durnstein, Austria, known for it apricot soaps, jams, and brandy. It is located in the Wachau Valley.. Durnstein is referred to as the "Pearl of the Wachau".
Kuenringer Castle where King Richard the Lion-heart was caught and held prisoner by Duke Leopold V. King Richard was held prisoner for over a year.
This is the entrance to one of the shops in Durnstein - nothing modern here.

After our walk around Durnstein and a little shopping, we returned to our ship, Viking Odin.
