The Bidenegg Castle , also Biedenegg, Bideneck, Biedeneck and called the Castle, is a castle in the Tyrolean town of flow in the west of Austria .

The castle complex was first mentioned in a document in 1339. It was relatively unprotected for a castle and accessible from a moderately sloping slope. Striking are the twelve 1.5-meter-high dovetail battlements, which the keep crown and were brought only in recent times in this form.

In 1546 Hans Trautson acquired the castle. The complex was rebuilt in the 16th century and has largely retained its appearance to this day. The barons of Pach zu Hansenheim later acquired the castle. They later also ran a cafe. The castle has been owned by the Pöll family since 1994.

There are currently holiday apartments in the castle, which is why it is not open for sightseeing.
