Schloss Seehaus, Château in Petting, Germany

Schloss Seehaus stands along the Weidsee lake in the Traunstein district of Bavaria, featuring medieval architectural elements and fortified structures.

Originally owned by the Counts of Thann, the castle was transferred to Archbishop Rudolf of Salzburg around 1280 and served as a guard post on the Lower Salt Road.

The castle chapel, dedicated to Saint Rupert, underwent restoration in 1679 and received additional ceremonial furnishings in 1748 for religious ceremonies.

The castle remains in private ownership and does not permit public access, though its exterior can be viewed from designated areas around the property.

During restoration work in 1985, workers discovered late Gothic paintings within the castle walls, revealing additional layers of its architectural history.
