Schloss Halbturn, Baroque castle in Halbturn, Austria.

The castle features a symmetrical facade with ornate stone decorations, large windows, and a central building flanked by two reconstructed wings.

Johann Lucas von Hildebrandt designed this hunting lodge for Emperor Charles VI between 1701 and 1711, with later modifications by Franz Anton Hillebrandt.

The castle interior contains a remarkable ceiling fresco titled 'Allegory of Time and Light' created in 1765 by Franz Anton Maulbertsch.

The castle functions as an exhibition space and concert venue, offering guided tours and wine tastings from its adjacent vineyard.

The surrounding English-style garden, redesigned in 1900, includes a preserved baroque broderie parterre from 1737 in front of the south facade.
