Burgruine Pfannberg, Medieval castle ruins in Frohnleiten, Austria
The stone remains of Pfannberg Castle stand on a steep hill, with walls stretching across three sides of the wooded elevation.
The castle's construction started in the early 13th century when the Peggau lords required a larger fortress than their previous residence.
The castle chapel hosted eternal masses established by Hugo von Montfort, a minnesinger who served as Styrian regional governor in 1415.
The ruins underwent preservation work after 1958, making sections of the medieval structure accessible for current visitors.
The castle functioned as a chalk fire station during the late 16th century while already in a state of partial deterioration.
