Sigmundslust Castle
The castle was built by Duke Sigmund the Rich in Coins from 1460 to 1470. Around 1500, renovations were carried out by Peter Rumel von Lichtenau. From 1520 to 1526, Tyrol's first printing press was established in the castle by Jörg Stöckl. In 1809, the castle almost completely burned down. In 1859, the von Riccabona family bought the property and rebuilt the castle into its present form. In 1862, the stair tower was added. Later, ownership passed to the Barons von Biegeleben.
