Schloss Klamm

Schloss Klamm is a medieval castle in Obsteig that sits on a hillside with thick defensive walls and multiple towers characteristic of the period. The complex includes residential quarters, a chapel, and storage areas arranged within fortified stone structures.

The castle was built during the medieval period as a defensive stronghold and residence for a local noble family in the Tyrol region. Over centuries it underwent modifications and expansions while maintaining its core defensive design.

The castle serves as a regional landmark where locals gather for traditional events and celebrations throughout the year. Visitors experience how the building remains woven into the identity and daily traditions of the surrounding mountain community.

The castle is accessible via marked hiking paths starting from Obsteig village, with varying conditions depending on the season and weather. Sturdy footwear is recommended as the trails can be steep and conditions at higher elevation change quickly.

The castle houses a collection of medieval weapons and armor in its lower chambers that were designed specifically for mountain defense in the Tyrol region. These pieces show how residents adapted their defenses to the challenging terrain they inhabited.
