Schloss Pöllan, Protected heritage castle in Paternion, Austria
The stone castle stands at 629 meters altitude with two hexagonal corner towers and features a Renaissance portal made of red and brown stone.
Construction of the castle began between 1600 and 1616 under Christoph Haidenreich, who later sold the property during the Counter-Reformation period.
The castle structure displays medieval construction techniques with visible scaffold holes in the walls and traditional architectural elements from the 16th century.
The castle remains private property and currently serves as residential housing for forestry workers, continuing its practical function since World War II.
Near the castle at Tragin-Pöllan by Weißenbach creek, an ancient gold panning site existed where gold dust and nuggets were collected since antiquity.
