To be privately owned
Rossatz Castle

Rossatz Castle was owned by the Bavarian monastery of Metten from 985-991. Later, ownership changed to the Lords of Kuenring, of Wallsee, of Spaur, and from 1769-1859 to the Lords of Schönborn.
The castle is a late medieval Renaissance building at its core, with a hip roof from the second half of the 16th century. The windows of the facade facing the square are arranged symmetrically to the central axis; painted window frames, false windows, and side columns were created at the end of the 17th century. Window baskets are attached to the second floor. A sundial dated 1647 is painted on the north side. The high round-arched gate with bumper stones is located on the central axis. On the courtyard side, there is a painted sundial (dated 1600) and three-story arcades on the courtyard wing. An enclosing wall with two small corner towers adjoins the courtyard wing.
