Renaissance Ponitz Castle
In 1574 the medieval moated castle was replaced by a renaissance building.
The most important owner of the Ponitz Castle was Dr. Wolfgang Conrad von Thumbshirn, who as a diplomat signed the peace treaty to end the 30 Years War on October 14, 1648.
The entire area is well worth seeing and in a very well-kept condition.translated by•April 28, 2021
The castle was first mentioned in 1254 and rebuilt in Renaissance style in 1574, and has been given its present appearance.
