Traun Castle

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.

Traun Castle houses a freely accessible exhibition on the history of the castle and the nobility in the ring mantle complex.

The almost 900-year-old castle above the Trattnachtal changed hands countless times. Tenants are currently being sought for the castle.

A beautiful water castle, recommended for a break.

The moated castle was first mentioned around the year 1120 (1111) with B(P)ernhard de Trune. The Trauners were a noble family that was even one of the so-called “apostle families”, but was then relegated to the ministerial status of the Otakare, later the Babenbergs and finally, from 1246, the bishops of Passau. The reason for this is probably the withdrawal of fiefs or a marriage to the “worse hand”, i.e. H. an inappropriate marriage. The brothers Wernhard and Dietrich von Traun were already ministerials. They remained in possession of their ancestral castle until 1630. Then Sigmund Adam von Traun, married to Eva von Pollheim, had to sell his rule to Werner t'Serklaes von Tilly, a nephew of the general Johann T'Serclaes von Tilly, who had already acquired the rule of Tillysburg Castle, because of his Protestant faith. He managed to break the feudal bond and convert Traun into a free property. Sigmund's Catholic son Ernst Graf von Abensperg and Traun (1608–1668) was able to regain possession of the Traun castle and estate in 1664 after a long process. After the imperially confirmed genealogical connection to the Counts of Abensberg and the resulting elevation to the rank of imperial count by Emperor Ferdinand III. Under the name Abensperg and Traun In 1653 the Trauns called themselves Counts of Abensperg and Traun. This family still owns Traun Castle today (Wikipedia).
