Schloss Thürn, Wolfsberg, Medieval castle in Wolfsberg, Austria

The stone structure features a two-story palace on its south side, complete with Gothic corbels and a tower crowned by an onion-shaped spire.

First documented in 1243 as property of Wülfling von dem Thurn, the castle changed ownership multiple times before becoming part of the Jesuit order in 1916.

The northeast tower chapel contained a Renaissance door prospect from 1589, which now resides in the St. Paul's Abbey collection.

Following extensive renovations in the early 2000s by owner Hellmut Longin, the castle maintains 2,000 square meters of living space.

Until the 19th century, the castle grounds contained Carinthia's largest continuous vineyard, which underwent recultivation in 1978.
