Haindorf Castle is located in the district of the same name in Langenlois, originally in the middle of the Kampauen. The existence of the so-called field mill, which is considered the core building of the later castle, was first documented in 1530. The L-shaped free house from the Renaissance was supplemented by a mill building, which existed as a ground-level wing until it was demolished in 1975. Around 1720, the castle was extended to its present form with the two open staircases roughly in the middle of the east wing and the construction of the bell tower.
For a long time, the castle stood alone in the middle of an agricultural area. As early as 1823, the Franziszeische Land Register shows that it and its farm buildings were surrounded by a wall, most of which has been preserved to this day.

After a complete renovation, the Lower Austrian Builders’ Association has been operating Haindorf Castle as a conference and recreation hotel and training center since 1982.
Haindorf Castle and the adjacent castle park have been the venue and atmospheric backdrop for the Lower Austrian Operetta Summer since 1996.
In 2003, the estate was extended by the modern Bauakademie.
The aim was to create a modern training center for apprentice and adult education for the Lower Austrian construction industry in Haindorf with the castle and its extension and the renovation and refurbishment of the training yard to the east for the inter-company training of apprentices.
To the north of the castle, a separate building was erected to accommodate the apprentices, with a total of 18 rooms on the upper floor and adjoining rooms and lounges on the ground floor. The rooms are used for tourism when the apprentices are not working. The extension is connected to the castle by a transparent, visually very reduced link, which forms an intersection for reception, communication and foyer.
During the renovation of the palace, which was carried out in close cooperation with the Federal Monuments Office, the façade and the historically valuable components in the east and south wings were preserved. In the north wing from the 20th century, major structural interventions were made in the existing building, such as the demolition and new construction of a staircase and the installation of a lift. The ground floor is used for the restaurant, seminar rooms and general infrastructure. The ballroom on the upper floor was adapted to modern requirements. The planned 27 rooms on the upper floor and attic were completely renovated. With the new access road, the inner courtyard has been upgraded by freeing it from traffic and has been landscaped accordingly. The buildings are heated and cooled using geothermal energy. Electricity is generated by a photovoltaic system.
