Schloss Cumberland, Neo-Gothic castle in Gmunden, Austria
Schloss Cumberland is a castle with Neo-Gothic architecture sitting on a hilltop above Gmunden. The building impresses with its facades made from red marble and granite sourced from nearby regions.
The Hanover family had the castle built between 1882 and 1886 after they had to go into exile in Austria. This construction marked the beginning of a new home for the displaced dynasty in the region.
The castle contained notable treasures including the Guelph Bible and altar paintings from the Lucas Cranach school in its dedicated chapel.
The castle functions today as a state care facility and can be viewed from the outside by visitors. Those who visit should expect that access to the interior is not possible.
Cumberland Castle represents the largest historicist castle in Upper Austria, incorporating materials from three different regions including sandstone from Regensburg.
