Thurn Castle, Medieval castle in San Martin de Tor, Italy.

The stone fortress stands on a hilltop with circular walls and features marble portals, displaying architectural elements from different periods of construction.

The Lords of Tyrol maintained control of the castle until 1253, when their last member died and the seat of power moved to Innsbruck.

The castle chapel contains Gothic frescoes and houses one of the earliest examples of glass paintings found in the Tyrol region.

Visitors can reach the castle through a walking path from San Martin de Tor village, with the journey taking approximately 30 minutes.

Since 2003, the castle operates as Museum Ladin Ćiastel de Tor, preserving and displaying artifacts that represent local heritage.
