Schloss Sigmundslust, Private hunting castle in Vomp, Austria.

The square residential tower features corner turrets, a battlement wall surrounding the garden, and a prominent entrance tower in the northwest section.

Construction began between 1472 and 1473 under Archduke Sigmund, and the structure burned down in 1809 during liberation wars, leading to reconstruction in 1860.

The castle housed the first printing press in Tyrol during the early 16th century, producing the first Catholic hymnbook in German language.

The castle remains private property and houses the Family Pöll Foundation, with no public access permitted to the interior or grounds.

Baron Rüdiger von Biegeleben enhanced the interior in 1900 with collected artworks, including Japanese samurai armor and weapons.
