To be privately owned

As early as 1163, Ortholphus de Idolsperge and Bruno de Zidolfsperg are mentioned as owners of the village in Idolsberg. Further owners in the 15th century were the Lords of Jaispitz and Kunstadt, in 1524 Johann von Lamberg, in 1546 Erasmus Leisser, in 1731 Johann Freiherr von Megier, in 1790 Joseph Graf Stiebar, in 1845 Eugen Freiherr von Wacken, and since the beginning of the 20th century, the Waldstein - Wartenberg family.

The castle was built in the 16th century on the walls of the old fortress. It was destroyed in 1618 and subsequently rebuilt. From 1784-90, the castle was expanded. After a major fire in 1835, the castle was rebuilt.
