Tratzberg Castle, Renaissance castle in Stans, Austria

The castle stretches across a steep ridge above Jenbach, featuring a three-story four-wing complex with a courtyard and stair tower in marble elements.

Chronicles from 1296 mention the original Trazperch castle, which burned in 1490 before Emperor Maximilian I granted the site to the Tänzl brothers in 1499.

The Habsburg Hall displays extensive frescoes depicting the imperial family lineage, including Emperor Maximilian I and numerous aristocratic figures of the era.

Visitors can reach the castle via the Tratzberg Express shuttle service, with guided tours available daily from March through September and weekends in autumn.

The castle maintains original Gothic and Renaissance furniture, including a specialized cupboard crafted specifically for the Teutonic Order.
