Schloss Pottendorf, Medieval chapel and château in Pottendorf, Austria

The late Gothic chapel features pointed arches and a tower, connected to the main castle building through a passage constructed in 1519.

In 1670, Franz III Graf Nádasdy was arrested at Schloss Pottendorf during a rebellion against Emperor Leopold I of Hungary.

The castle complex contains architectural elements from different periods, including Romanesque corner towers and Gothic religious structures from the 13th century.

The castle grounds and park, spanning 211,000 square meters, are open to visitors, though the main building remains closed due to structural concerns.

The castle served as a military hospital during World War II, first for German forces and later for Russian occupation troops.
