Lengberg Castle, Medieval castle in Nikolsdorf, Austria
The castle stands on a hill near the Carinthian border, featuring Late-Gothic architectural elements with a two-story structure and chapel dedicated to Saints Sebastian and Nicholas.
Built in 1190 by the Counts of Lechsgemünde, the castle served as an administrative center before passing to the Archbishop of Salzburg in the 13th century.
In 1485, the castle chapel underwent reconstruction and received consecration from Pietro Carlo, the Bishop of Caorle, marking its religious significance.
The castle operates under the AufBauWerk Association, which prepares students from integrated classes for professional life through vocational training programs.
During renovations in 2008, archaeologists discovered 15th-century garments in a vault, including four linen bras that predate modern undergarment designs by centuries.
