Schloss Grünbühel, Protected castle in Kilb, Austria

The rectangular three-story castle features round corner towers on each front facade and five window axes across all elevations, positioned on elevated ground.

First documented in 1074 associated with nobleman Adalbert von Kilb, the castle passed through multiple noble families including Rudolf von Perg and Friedrich von Perg.

The architectural evolution from medieval fortress to Renaissance palace reflects the changing needs of Austrian nobility through different historical periods.

The castle remains a private residence under the ownership of Dr. Georg Graf Pachta-Reyhofen since 2004, with limited public access to the grounds.

A votive painting from 1563 depicts the former St. Veit Chapel and provides the oldest known illustration of the castle with its four bay towers.
