Schloss Weyer, Renaissance castle in Gmunden, Austria

Schloss Weyer is a Renaissance castle in Gmunden with four wings surrounding an arcaded courtyard. The building contains a private chapel and is located at Karl-Josef-von-Frey-Gasse 27 in Upper Austria.

The building was first mentioned in 1446 as Sitz am Weyr and underwent major restructuring in 1596. In 1624, Emperor Ferdinand II granted the property noble privileges.

The castle displays a collection of Meissen porcelain pieces from twenty royal households, including items made for Empress Elisabeth and Czarina Catherine.

The chapel inside the castle is occasionally used for religious ceremonies and is accessible to visitors. The Renaissance architecture is well preserved, and access is through Karl-Josef-von-Frey-Gasse.

The eastern facade of the castle features elaborate sgraffito decorations honoring former owners. In the courtyard stands an old well that has witnessed the site's long history.
