The Selling Castle (also precious seat Seeling or selling called current name Good Seeling ) is located near the village of Thern the municipality of St. Georgen im Attergau in District Vöcklabruck of Upper Austria (Thern 10).
history
The originally wooden building Saelingen was built by Aspach Abbey in Bavaria . In 1127 Selling was owned by Countess Christina Geraldi, then again owned by Aspach Abbey and then by the Bamberg diocese. For example, Seelingen is mentioned in 1296 in a document from Bamberg Bishop Leopold I von Gründlach . In 1390 Heinrich Hintermaier, bailiff of the Asbach an der Rott monastery, received from Abbot Jakob the "good at Selingen in the Attergawe" as a personal asset . At the beginning of the 17th century, the former caretaker of the lordship chamber Hieronymus Rotmair († 1623) was administrator of the Asbach office in Seeling. In the k. u. k. Schematism from 1837 is named as owner of the noble farm Felix Levasori della Motta.

The former noble residence was significantly changed by several modifications in the 19th century and converted into a farm. Above the entrance there is a plaque with the inscription "Built in 1836 - Anton Hesch".
The building now serves as a farm. It is owned by the Meergraf family from Thuringia. Franz Alois Meergraf handed over the property to his daughter Monika in 1957.
