Burg Schrofenstein, Medieval castle ruins in Stanz bei Landeck, Austria.
The stone remains of Schrofenstein Castle stand on a rocky ledge at 1122 meters above sea level, with remnants of a 12-meter-high central tower.
The castle served as a seat for the Schrofenstein noble family from the 13th century until 1546, later becoming property of the Trautson counts and princes.
The fortress monitored trade routes connecting Vinschgau, Arlberg, and Fernpass, playing a central role in regional medieval administration and defense systems.
Visitors reach the castle ruins through marked hiking paths from Stanz bei Landeck, with additional historical structures visible 50 meters below the main site.
The castle features remaining sections of its original economic courtyard and stables, positioned separately from the main structure toward the village of Stanz.
