Schloss Nechelheim, Protected heritage castle in Sankt Lorenzen im Mürztal, Austria

The castle exhibits a three-story Baroque structure with a rectangular layout and two circular corner towers topped with high domes on the south facade.

First documented in 1188 as 'Heim des Neche', the property changed ownership multiple times until Franz Xaver von Fraydenegg-Monzello transformed it into its current form in 1789.

The second floor chapel of the southwest tower contains wall paintings and a ceiling image of Saint Francis Xavier created by Joseph Michael Gebler in 1789.

The castle stands at 570 meters above sea level and remains privately owned, allowing visitors to view only its exterior features and surrounding park grounds.

The vaulted anteroom displays an extensive collection of former owners' coats of arms, accompanied by historical paintings and period weapons from different eras.
