1921 Hungary Local Post Lajtabánság Post Office 50 Korona Güssing Castle Unused Extremely Light Hinge Mark 90+% Original Gum. Lajtabánság, or the Banate of Leitha, was a short-lived western Hungarian state in the region where the Austrian federal state of Burgenland now exists. It existed between 4 October and 10 November 1921, following the Treaty of Trianon and the departure of the rump Kingdom of Hungary's army and after the Sopron plebiscite was held in the area according to the Venice protocol. The Burg Gussing Castle (sorry for the lack of umlauts!) is now in southern Burgenland, Austria. The Castle was established by Bela III of Hungary around 1180. Naturally, the Hungarians would have liked it to remain with Hungary. Güssing Castle is a castle in southern Burgenland, Austria. On June 30, 1524, the castle was acquired by the Batthyány family, which retains ownership through a historical foundation that provides for the care and maintenance of the castle. Güssing Castle is 293 metres above sea level. Wikipedia
