Lang Castle was first mentioned in a document in 1306. In 1440 the property belonged to the Pybriacher family, the owners of the Himmelberg lordship . As a result, the owners changed frequently. In the 18th century, the Jabornegg family sat at Lang Castle. In 1810 the castle burned down. In 1831 the property came to the Platzer family. Today it is still privately owned.
description
The castle is a two-story building with a 19th century facade. The later added central projection is opened by loggias. Two Roman votive altars for Jupiter , which probably come from Tiffen, are walled in on the double-flighted staircase . The square fortification tower with a pyramid roof, located northwest of the castle, is connected to the main building by a wall. To the north of the slope is the Stampferturm, documented in 1478, a remnant of the former fortification.
Vaults from the beginning of the 16th century have been preserved in the cellar. The upper floor is equipped with three Empire tiled stoves .
The associated barn has brick windows with a lamellar structure.
