Schloss Seltenheim, Renaissance castle in Klagenfurt, Austria

The elongated two-story castle features a central courtyard with columned arcades, a three-story west tower, and a southwest corner with a cantilevered bay window.

First mentioned in 1193 as Saldenhofen, the castle passed through several noble families including the Liechtensteins and Windischgrätz before its reconstruction in the 19th century.

The castle chapel, dedicated to the Holy Trinity in 1670, contains three preserved 17th-century altars and a masonry organ loft supported by Tuscan columns.

Located atop a hill near the Klagenfurt-Seltenheim golf course, the castle underwent extensive restoration in 1972 and opens for summer concerts.

The current castle stands on a different location from the original Seltenheim fortress, which was situated on Seltenheimer Berg but has completely disappeared.
