Jagdschloss Schmida, Renaissance hunting lodge in Hausleiten, Austria.

The four-wing castle with Renaissance architecture spans two stories and stands near the Stranzendorfer Bach in the southwest section of the village.

The castle's first documentation dates to 1327 as 'haus ze Smida', following mentions of the Saint Nicholas chapel from 1313.

The estate transformed from a medieval fortress into a Renaissance palace through renovations between 1595 and 1600 under Count Georg Friedrich von Hardegg.

The castle residence, located at Kremser Strasse 16 in Hausleiten, underwent exterior renovations in 1980 and reopened for residential use in 1983.

Emperor Karl VI and Maria Theresia frequented this hunting lodge, which later endured destruction during Russian occupation in 1945.
