Schloss Traun, Medieval castle in Traun, Austria

The three-story stone castle features eight axial windows, four corner turrets, and stands at 274 meters above sea level in Upper Austria.

Originally constructed as a moated fortress in 1120, the castle underwent substantial reconstruction in the late 16th century and received its current Baroque design in 1725.

The castle chapel, built in 1363, served as a Protestant church for 80 years during the Reformation period before returning to Catholic services.

The castle offers guided tours, cultural events, and can be reached by public transportation from major cities in Upper Austria.

The castle grounds included a moat until 1884, when it was filled to convert parts of the manor house into residential apartments.
