Aistersheim Castle, Renaissance castle in Aistersheim, Austria

The castle stands on wooden-pile foundations within a water-filled moat, featuring four corner towers and symmetrical Renaissance architectural elements throughout its structure.

The castle received its current Renaissance form during extensive modifications in the 16th century, transforming it from a medieval defensive structure into a refined residence.

The castle maintains a collection of period furniture and decorative elements that represent the living standards of Austrian nobility through different centuries.

Visitors need to schedule their tours in advance by contacting Dr. Heinrich Birnleitner, as the castle operates on a reservation-based system.

The castle's complete water surround system remains functional today, making it one of the few castles in Upper Austria with an active moat.
