Schloss Fischhorn, Medieval château in Bruck an der Großglocknerstraße, Austria

The castle stands on an artificial ridge, featuring a main building with a large corner tower and a polygonal outer bailey with an additional tower.

First documented in 1227 as Vischarn, the castle belonged to the Lords of Goldegg before suffering damage during the 1526 Peasants' War.

The structure underwent a Neo-Gothic transformation between 1863 and 1866 based on designs by Vienna Cathedral architect Friedrich von Schmidt.

The castle remains in private ownership and does not offer public access, though its exterior can be viewed from nearby vantage points.

Between 1944 and 1945, the castle served as an external camp of Dachau, and since 2000 has undergone extensive preservation work.
