Castle Katzenzungen, Medieval castle in Prissian, Italy
A stone bridge extends 32 meters to the entrance of Castle Katzenzungen, which stands on elevated ground in South Tyrol's wine region.
The castle's first written record dates to 1244 when Henricus de Cazenzunge transferred ownership to the noble families of von Fink and von Schlandersberg.
The Renaissance architecture of Castle Katzenzungen reflects the 16th-century modifications made by the Lords of Breisach, who united all structures under one roof.
Castle Katzenzungen functions as an event venue with capacity for 450 guests, offering spaces for weddings, wine tastings, corporate gatherings, and gala functions.
At the base of Castle Katzenzungen grows Europe's largest grapevine, producing 500 bottles annually of certified Versoaln wine from its 350-year-old stock.
