    The Ort Castle (also written in Orth until the early 20th century) is a complex of two castles on Lake Traunsee and is located in a district of the city of Gmunden.

      Until a few years ago, the spelling "Orth" was common.

        The Seeschloss Ort is located on a small island, which is connected to the Tuscany peninsula by a 120 m long wooden bridge. It is Gmunden's landmark. Until a few years ago, the spelling "Orth" was common. On the left side of the inner courtyard, various high water marks are drawn, according to which the flood in 1594 in the Seeschloss Ort had reached a height of 2.97 m and thus the top step of the ambulatory. The small palace chapel is dedicated to Saint James. The castle tower, behind which the much smaller church tower almost disappears, bears the year "1092". The altarpiece depicts the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, attended by James the Elder, the patron saint of the church.
