Schloss Gusterheim, Medieval château in Pöls-Oberkurzheim, Austria

The elongated two-story building features two small interior courtyards and an eastern tower topped with a baroque dome structure.

The château originated from a Offenburg Castle farm, with Christof Viehhauser transforming it into a noble residence after purchasing it in 1629.

The structure earned recognition from Emperor Leopold I in 1658, allowing its owner Christian Johann Payrlechner to adopt the title 'von Lerchtenthal und Gusterheim'.

The property functions as a residence and administrative building for a large forestry operation, with exterior viewing permitted for visitors.

The building incorporated prison cells from the decaying Reifenstein castle ruins during renovations in 1835 when it served as a district court.
