Radensbach Castle

The remains of the abandoned Radensbach Castle are in the community of Niedernsill in the Zell am See district of Salzburg .

The facility is located above the Aisdorf district near the Rattenspach estate on the orographic right bank of the Aisdorf stream. It can be reached by following the B 168 to the Steindorf roundabout, then taking the junction to Niedernsill and following the Rattensbacherweg to the no-driving sign. You have to follow the forest road for another three minutes and then you reach the ruins north of the forest road.

Here, under the field name Burgböndl or Burgboden, there is a flat surface above which a castle complex has been found. The complex was secured by two palisade ditches in a west-east direction. An irregular square can be seen from the foundation walls, the walls are about 15 and 12 m long; Rising masonry is still there. In the northeast there is a walled hole that suggests a former well. In the area of the castle a late antique complex is suspected. Documentary documents about this castle have not yet been found.
