Schloss Freyenthurn, Renaissance castle in Klagenfurt, Austria.

Freyenthurn Castle sits atop the Falkenberg hill slope, offering views over Lake Wörthersee with its tower-like structure and multiple bay windows.

Hans Angerer, treasurer to King Ferdinand I, constructed the castle in 1541, receiving permission to add 'zu Freyenthurn' to his name upon completion.

The castle underwent modifications in 1884 to incorporate Tudor architectural elements, creating a fusion of Renaissance and 19th-century design styles.

The castle now functions as a nightclub venue with restricted access, requiring advance arrangements through the local tourism office for visits.

From its origins as a Renaissance fortress to its current role as an entertainment venue, the castle maintains protected status as a cultural monument.
