Wehrburg, Medieval castle in Prissian, Italy.
The castle stands with two quadrangular residential towers atop a hill, offering views across the Adige Valley and surrounding mountain landscapes.
Built in the 13th century by the Wehrburg family, the castle changed ownership multiple times until 1798 when the Murentheiner line ended.
The castle features round-arched windows, wide staircases, and frescos, with a 15th-century chapel positioned behind the main entrance.
The castle now operates as a hotel, with public access limited to the courtyard area through the Castle Path hiking trail.
The structure underwent substantial restoration around 1900 by an Austro-Hungarian ambassador who purchased it after a century of neglect.
