Schloss Weißenberg, Renaissance château in Neuhofen an der Krems, Austria

The five-sided courtyard of Schloss Weißenberg features a three-story entrance tower and wings ending in hipped gable sides with late Baroque pilaster strips.

The initial fortress, documented before 1195, underwent transformation into a Renaissance castle between 1517 and 1575 under the supervision of Volker von Volkensdorff.

The castle accommodates cultural events and art exhibitions, while maintaining its primary function as a private residence since its acquisition by the Kuthy family.

Visitors can observe the exterior of the castle, including a large wooden Baroque statue of Saint Florian from the 17th century in a wall niche.

During World War II, the castle fell under Hermann Göring's administration before returning to previous owners and later housing a slipper production facility.
