Schloss Groß-Schweinbarth, Medieval castle in Groß-Schweinbarth, Austria.

Schloss Groß-Schweinbarth features a dry moat surrounding the structure, with two stories facing the street and two unequal wings forming a court of honor.

The castle's foundation dates to the 12th century when the area was named Suinwart, referencing a hunting stand for wild boars.

The castle maintains its status as a cultural heritage monument, registered in the Austrian database under ObjektID 6303.

Located at Hauptstraße 2, the castle stands near a former lordship poorhouse, which underwent renovation in 1803.

The castle's northern wing, constructed from small rubble stones, represents the original main tract, while other sections use brick construction.
