Traun Castle

Unfortunately, the position on Komoot is incorrect. The castle is located a good 6 km away near Rohr an der Krems, not on Linzer Straße next to Hall Castle in Bad Hall. Please correct this position, as otherwise the planning will be based on incorrect assumptions. The correct position would be 48.074749, 14.180378.

In 1279, Feyregg Castle was mentioned in a document from the Lambach Abbey. The early medieval part of the castle, including the east tower and its immediate surroundings, is still visible from the time of the Followers (until 1407). The old Gothic gate, as well as a bay window and various vaults, can still be seen in the inner courtyard. Around 1500, the Sinzendorf family built the long wing of the old castle. Around 1600, during the Peasants' War, Feyregg suffered greatly and, after the Peasants' War, was sold to the Spital am Pyhrn Abbey in 1629. It became the residence of the provosts. This was arguably Feyregg's most prosperous period. It was also at this time that the castle was extensively rebuilt and given a Baroque style by the Upper Austrian architect Prunner. In 1809, the Spital am Pyhrn Abbey was dissolved, and in 1812, the well-known wealthy merchant Franz von Plank, a native of Linz, purchased the Feyregg estate. Otto and Ruth Harmer purchased the castle and the farm in 1937. It was thoroughly renovated that year, and in 1969, the hotel "Schloss Feyregg" was established in the old castle, offering all the modern amenities.

The beautiful castle on the quiet side street now houses a hunting museum

Bernhard von Losenstein had the current castle built in 1515 and gave it the name "Losensteinleiten". When a Turkish army under Kassim Pasha made the area unsafe in 1532, the castle suffered greatly. It is said that a hunter defended himself with many guns and shot a Turkish leader. This heroic act frightened the Turks and they fled. Between 1550 and 1570, the castle was enlarged by Georg Achaz von Losenstein. His wife was called Christina von Bergheim. The family died out with Franz Anton von Losenstein in 1692. The property passed to the Princes of Auersperg and their successors until 1950. From 1955 to 1993, Losensteinleiten Castle was owned by the Camillian Order, which ran a private high school with public rights until 1976. From 1978 to 1983, the Upper Austrian state government housed an agricultural college for girls. From 1985 to 1993, the Camillians ran the St. Kamillus retreat and education center in Losensteinleiten Castle, with a focus on the training and further education of people working in the service of the sick, especially in the denominational hospitals in Austria.
