Mariandl revient à Dürnstein après des études de piano à l'académie de musique et des arts du spectacle de Vienne. Elle rend visite à son grand-père Windischgruber qui a fait un héritage : une cousine lui a légué un domaine dans la Wachau, il s'imagine qu'il s'agit d'un château. Mais sur place, ils se rendent compte que le château sera à eux s'ils l'achètent. Le domaine est une ferme délabrée avec des chiens et des chevaux. Les chevaux ne font pas partie de la succession, ils sont "réservés" pour le douteux Deininger. Ils achètent les chevaux à des cirques en faillite et en fait du salami en Italie. Tant qu'il n'a pas assez de chevaux à transporter, il les met en pâturage sur les terrains de Windischgruber.

The singer Caterine, owner of a bar/night club in Paris, wants to marry her boyfriend Pierre. However, at the registrar's office she finds out that she is allegedly already married to one Baron Hubert von Löwenherz, owner of a castle. A former employee had stolen Caterine's documents and married the Baron under her assumed identity — before disappearing with the family jewels. Caterine travels to the Baron's castle, where a visit by his rich uncle forces the Baron to stage a life of married harmony with Caterine as his wife. Eventually, Caterine and the Baron fall for each other, whilst Pierre finds a new romance with the castle's cook.
