Originally, Weißenberg Castle stood on this site. The conversion of the castle into a palace began between 1517 and 1575 under Volker von Volkensdorff. Under Hans Caspar von Volkenstorff, the present Renaissance-style palace was built in front of the old castle. In the 18th century, it passed to the Kremsmünster Abbey. In 1803, Kremsmünster's Abbot Alexander had the old castle, including its fortifications and the Chapel of the Ascension, demolished and a new palace wing built. In the 20th century, several owners followed suit until the Kuthy family acquired the palace from bankruptcy in 1970 and restored it to perfection. Today, it is primarily used for residential purposes and cultural events. Apart from exhibition openings and other cultural events, the palace can only be viewed from the outside.

Gschwendt Castle is located in the Gries district of the market town of Neuhofen an der Krems and today houses the Upper Austrian State Retirement and Nursing Home. All that remains of the former splendor of the complex are the monumental gatehouse, the manor house (opposite), built in 1682, the hunter's lodge, and the gardener's house. The actual castle complex has disappeared. Those interested in learning more about the history of the castle can do so here: https://www.burglosenstein.at/index.php/schloss-gschwendt.html
