history
Stadlkirchen was the headquarters of the Stadler . A Rotpdreh de Stadele was mentioned 1099–1115 in the St. Florian Book of the Dead; Lantfrid de Stadele is first mentioned in a document from St. Florian Monastery in 1162. A Wernhart is mentioned in a Gleinker deed in 1175 . He was succeeded by the Kerschperger , with an heir named Chnecht Stephel Chersperger in 1376 . The noble Jörg Kerschperger († 1495) seals a certificate in 1487 in Stadlkirchen. The Panhalm can be found here in the 16th century . A Barthlmee Panhalm put his seal on a certificate from Eberhard Marschalk von Reichenau in 1533. In 1558 Georg Christoph von Neuhaus bought the mansion located here and built the moated castle. Georg von Neuhaus was married to the last Stadler Barbara († 1659). Anton Eckhart zu Thann acquired the property from Georg Ehrenreich Neuhauser in 1683. In 1773 rulership passed to Prince Heinrich Josef von Auersperg . This combined Stadlkirchen with the rule Losensteinleithen . Prince Wilhelm von Auersperg inherited Stadlkirchen Castle on March 24, 1802. In 1808 the castle was acquired by the Gößwang family from Steyr and then gradually demolished.
Stadelkirchen moated castle then and now
As the copper engraving by Georg Matthäus Vischer from 1674 shows, Stadelkirchen was a three-story building with four cantilevered onion domes on the sides and a central tower towering over the building. Outside the pond, the castle was surrounded by a wall and partly with farm buildings. The entrances were protected with fortified towers. Flowerbeds can be seen within the facility. The castle was naturally accessible via a bridge. The church stood outside the complex and was also fenced in with a wall.
The moated castle was completely demolished, and the pond that used to surround the castle has also been filled in. What remains are the castle church, parts of the former brewery (1728–1826, today the Stadkirchner Hofstubn inn ) and the Meierhof .
