Pichl Castle

The castle is situated on a terrain terrace at the exit of the Veitschgraben and was built starting in 1555 by Jörg Idungspeuger on the site of a farm that had already been mentioned in 1363. It is surrounded by the remains of a renovated curtain wall with two round towers. The U-shaped building block has four projecting corner towers with tent roofs. The former chapel with a primitive star-ribbed vault is located in the northeast tower. The wood-paneled hall on the ground floor features a coffered ceiling. The castle now serves as an agricultural school.
