Bergschlößl, Heritage mansion in Froschberg district, Linz, Austria.
Bergschlößl is a manor house in Linz, Austria, with two stories and a mansard roof. The building shows rusticated stonework on the ground floor, ornately designed portals, and vertical plaster frames on the facade, while a park with several garden gates surrounds the property.
The building was constructed in 1718 under architect Johann Michael Prunner for Johann Jakob Maderer von Ehrenreichskron. The estate passed to the Oberosterreichischen Stande in 1739 and underwent various uses in later years.
The name refers to its hillside location in the Froschberg district. The garden holds sculptures and a baroque fountain that invite visitors to linger and give the place a distinctive character.
The manor house is located at Bergschlösslgasse 1 in central Linz and now serves as an event venue and educational facility. Visitors should note that access and opening hours vary depending on usage, and checking in advance is recommended.
Between 1992 and 1998, architect Peter Riepl carried out a thorough renovation of the building while preserving its historical elements. This careful restoration allowed the property to function as a modern event and training facility without losing its historical character.
