Castle Schenna, Medieval castle and military museum in Schenna, Italy.

The castle rises on a hill with stone walls, towers, and inner courtyards, displaying collections of historical weapons and artifacts from different centuries.

Petermann from Schenna constructed the initial structure in 1350, serving as the residence for various noble families including the Lords of Starkenberg and Counts of Lichtenstein.

The castle maintains the largest private collection related to Andreas Hofer, featuring exhibits that document the military and social history of South Tyrol.

Visitors can access the castle through guided tours from April to October, with the entrance located at Via al Castello 14 in Schenna.

The neo-Gothic mausoleum within the castle grounds contains the tomb of Archduke John of Austria and displays regional craftsmanship from the period.
