Schloss Pellendorf, Heritage castle in Gaweinstal, Austria

Schloss Pellendorf sits on a hilltop above the northern part of Pellendorf village, marking the last building of the old settlement area.

Built in 1319 by Simo von Pellendorf, the castle underwent major reconstruction in 1670 after Swedish forces burned down the medieval structure in 1645.

The castle formed a significant administrative center, combining the lordship of Ladendorf with the Pellendorf estate under Count Johann Joseph von Khevenhüller in 1746.

The castle now houses private apartments and serves as headquarters for Agropan estate management, which formed through the merger of several estate administrations in 2000.

From 1939 to 1944, the castle served as a refugee camp for resettlers from Bessarabia and Banat regions during World War II.
