Enns – Landesfürstliche Burg, Medieval castle in Enns, Austria.

This fortified structure stands prominently on a hill, featuring two internal courtyards and Roman artifacts from ancient Lauriacum in its arcade courtyard.

Emperor Frederick III ordered the construction of a new castle in 1483, with the building work completed between 1565 and 1570 under Georg Gienger's supervision.

The castle functions as a regional music school since 2001, maintaining educational programs while preserving its architectural heritage for future generations.

Visitors can explore the castle through guided tours and discover the Museum Enns 1212, which opened in 2023 to showcase the city's history.

The castle grounds include an English garden, established by Prince Vinzenz Auersperg in 1841 as one of the first public recreational spaces in the region.
