Excerpt from Wikipedia

Berneck Castle is a castle near the village of Kauns, Austria, in the Upper Inn valley, 1,076 meters above sea level.

Location

Berneck Castle is located near Kauns, on the opposite side of the Inn valley from Laudegg Castle, and in the Kaunertal valley. The castle sits on top of a large rock close to the river Faggenbach.

History

Berneck Castle was first documented in 1225, but a much older fortress seems to have existed at the site before the current incarnation of Bernegg.

Bernegg has changed numerous times in history: in 1435, it was purchased by the Swiss Hans Wilhelm von Mülinen, who transformed the castle into a larger, Gothic complex.
