Braunsberg Castle, Medieval castle in Lana, Italy.

The stone fortress stands at the edge of the Gaul Canyon, featuring circular walls decorated with pinnacles and a chapel with attached towers.

The Masters of Braunsberg first appeared in records from 1213, and in 1492 the castle transferred to the ownership of Counts Trapp.

The castle chapel contains a silver chalice from the 13th century and an altar from 1660 with paintings of Saints Blasius, Valentin, and Erasmus.

The castle remains in private ownership and stays closed to visitors, yet its exterior remains visible from the street connecting Lana to Val d'Ultimo.

In 1510, sections of the castle structure fell into the adjacent Gaul Canyon, altering its original architectural composition permanently.
