Scheuchenstein, Mountain hamlet in Miesenbach, Austria.
The settlement stands at 556 meters elevation between the Dürren Wand and Hohen Wand mountains, featuring scattered houses across the alpine landscape.
The castle of Scheuchenstein, first documented in 1260, fell during conflicts between Emperor Frederick III and Archduke Albrecht VI in 1463.
The parish church of Saint Rupert contains Romanesque elements from the 13th century and underwent substantial Baroque modifications around 1770.
The area serves as a starting point for multiple hiking trails, including a 16-kilometer route to Hintere Wand with an 870-meter elevation gain.
The Gauermann Museum, housed in a 1912 school building, displays works from local painter Friedrich Gauermann and maintains regular weekend exhibitions.
