Schloss Kattau, Medieval castle in Meiseldorf, Austria.

The four-winged structure features three floors arranged around a rectangular courtyard with sturdy corner towers on three sides of the building.

The castle, first mentioned in 1343, underwent transformation into a water fortress during the first half of the seventeenth century under various noble families.

The Barons of Gilleis shaped the architectural character of the castle between 1669 and 1827 through extensive baroque modifications to the structure.

The castle remains a center of agricultural operations and includes surrounding grounds with an English garden containing numerous old-growth trees.

After facing potential demolition following World War II due to structural deterioration, the castle received partial renovations and now belongs to the Hiller family.
