Schloss Paternion, Protected cultural castle in Paternion, Austria.

The castle stands on a hill south of Paternion center, featuring multiple wings that form a rectangular courtyard with distinct architectural elements.

The first documented mention of a fortress in Paternion dates to 1354, while the current structure was established by Sigmund von Dietrichstein in the early 16th century.

The castle contains several vaulted rooms, including a chapel, and displays the coats of arms of both the Dietrichstein and Widmann noble families.

The castle now serves as the forestry and estate management office for the Foscari-Widmann-Rezzonico family, who maintain the property.

A major fire in 1859 destroyed most of the 16th-century castle complex, leaving only the western wing, which was later rebuilt in 1897 in historicist style.
