Schloss Trumau, Medieval castle in Trumau, Austria

The square-shaped fortress features three round towers with conical roofs, surrounded by water channels forming a moat defense system.

Margrave Leopold IV gifted the estate to Heiligenkreuz Abbey in 1138, leading to the construction of a fortified manor house by Cistercian monks.

The castle chapel contains a replica of the Coronation of Mary painting, replacing the original 1702 artwork by Johann Michael Rottmayr stolen in 1945.

The International Theological Institute for Marriage and Family Studies has operated within the castle walls since its relocation there in 2009.

Soviet forces established a communications center in the castle from 1945 to 1947, causing substantial damage to the historical structure.
