Leonburg, Medieval castle in Lana, Italy.
The castle stands on a rocky outcrop overlooking the Adige Valley, with strong defensive walls and Renaissance architectural features throughout the structure.
Built around 1200 by the Brandis family ancestors, the castle faced a significant attack in 1275 when Meinhard II of Tyrol raided the fortification.
The structure demonstrates the evolution of medieval military architecture into Renaissance residential design, with modifications made after a fire in the 15th century.
Located on Via Ackpfeif in Lana, the castle can be viewed from the road leading to Passo Palade, though interior access remains restricted.
The castle has remained in the possession of the same family, the Counts of Brandis, since its construction eight centuries ago.
