Schloss Kirchberg an der Raab, Protected château in Kirchberg an der Raab, Austria.

Schloss Kirchberg an der Raab is a two-storey, elongated château with a horseshoe-shaped plan and central risalits in Kirchberg an der Raab, southeastern Austria. It was built in 1704 by Italian master builders on the site of an older fortified Tabor. Only the central wing survives of a larger complex that once had four towers, bastions, gardens and ponds. Inside are frescoes, stucco work and a main hall whose ceiling paintings were overpainted in the 20th century.

A 1394 charter records the estate as a free property without naming its owner; from 1414 to 1426 Count Hans von Steinpeiss is listed as holder. At the end of the 16th century Christoph Zöbinger built a larger fortification linked to the church's tabor. In 1704 Field Marshal Sigbert Count Heister had Italian master builders erect today's palace on the site of the old tabor.

The castle shapes how locals see their town and shows how regional nobility designed and lived in their homes. Different building styles reflect which families ruled here and how their ideas about living changed over time.

The castle stands in the village of Kirchberg an der Raab in southeastern Styria. The present building was erected from 1704 by Italian master builders on the site of the old Tabor, the fortified enclosure once linked to the church tower. It is privately owned and not open as a museum; cultural events such as castle concerts and international music days have been held there.

The castle is associated with the Marchfutterregister, records from 1414 to 1426 that name Count Hans von Steinpeiss as owner of the estate. The building itself was erected in 1704 by Italian master builders for Field Marshal Sigbert Count Heister, on the site of the old fortified Tabor.
