To be privately owned
Drasing Castle

Drasing Castle stands on a wooded hill north of Krumpendorf. Drasing Castle was first mentioned in documents in 1284 and 1362. It probably already existed in Carolingian times as an outer bailey of Moosburg Palace. From 1492 to 1640, Drasing was owned by the Feulner family. In 1842/1843, Thaddäus Lanner had the castle renovated and the tower at the southeast corner raised. Today the property is privately owned.
Description+
The castle is a three-story, castle-like Renaissance building from the 16th century with a tower at the southeast corner and battlements crowning the central part of the north and south fronts. Above the northern entrance portal, the newly made coat of arms of the Feulner family can be seen. The square arcaded courtyard has pillars and column arcades. On a stone portal on the first floor, an empty escutcheon and stonemason's marks can be seen. In the Knights' Hall on the second floor of the east wing, there is a green glazed tiled stove in Renaissance forms. The chapel, first mentioned in 1660, on the ground floor of the west wing, houses a painting from 1698 depicting Christ on the cross.
