Burg Seebenstein, Medieval castle in Seebenstein, Austria
The castle structure consists of two sections: a 13th-century round keep with ruined palace and a high castle built between 15th and 17th centuries.
The first recorded mention of Seebenstein dates to 1159 when Kalhoch zu Seebenstein attended a district court session held by Margrave Ottokar III.
The castle museum displays medieval weapons, sculptures, and artworks, including a statue of Mary created by the medieval sculptor Veit Stoss.
