Schloss Heroldeck

Schloss Heroldeck is a castle complex in Millstatt am See, Austria, located on the northern slopes of the lake and surrounded by alpine peaks. The property includes two main buildings that provide accommodations ranging from dormitory rooms to private suites with individual bathrooms.

The castle was built as a fortress structure and later protected as a heritage site to preserve its architectural significance for the region. Since 1988, the property has been managed by Calvary Chapel and operates as a spiritual education center.

The castle functions today as a gathering place for church groups and communities that hold their meetings and courses here. Visitors can observe how people use the space for shared activities and spiritual meetings.

The property sits directly on the lake at an elevated position with views toward the mountains, allowing visitors to enjoy the landscape from multiple vantage points. The two residential buildings are connected by pathways and offer different accommodation options depending on visitor needs.

The transformation from a purely historical structure into a modern education center with a religious focus occurred without demolishing the original building fabric. This shows how old architecture can take on new purposes while keeping its essential structure intact.
