Schloss Weinberg, Renaissance castle in Kefermarkt, Austria.
Schloss Weinberg is a Renaissance castle in Kefermarkt, Upper Austria, now operating as a hotel and event venue. It has guest rooms, historic halls, and an English landscape garden surrounding the building.
The castle was first recorded in the 13th century and was rebuilt from Gothic to Renaissance style under the Zelkinger family. In 1629 it passed to the Thürheim nobility, who shaped much of its current appearance.
The Ahnensaal has an original stucco ceiling from the early 17th century that visitors can still see today. The Kaisersaal regularly serves as a venue for concerts, weddings, and ceremonies.
The castle is easy to reach by car and has parking on the grounds. Visitors who want to see the historic halls should check ahead, as some rooms may be reserved for private events.
The current entrance hall of the castle was once a weapons storage room used in the 19th century. Visitors who look closely can still spot traces of that earlier use on the walls of the space.
