Schloss Senftenegg, Medieval castle in Ferschnitz, Austria

The symmetrical four-sided castle features two prominent round towers with pointed spires and a rectangular gate tower in the center of its south front.

The castle received its first documented mention in 1367 when Hans Häusler owned it as a fief from the Bishops of Regensburg.

The east wing contains a rectangular chapel dedicated to Saint Anthony of Padua, renovated in 1854 with vaulted ceilings and religious artwork.

The castle remains a private residence, allowing visitors to view only its exterior structure and architectural elements from designated areas.

The castle preserves remnants of defensive moats, Gothic cross-vaulted arcades, and a courtyard fountain adorned with a mannerist mask water spout.
