Freundsberg Castle was built in 1150 and impresses with its good condition. The castle church next to the castle was built in the 17th century.
The castle was founded by the Lords of Freundsberg and had prominent owners, including Archduke Sigismund den Münzreichen (=the Rich in Coins). In the 19th century it came into the possession of the city of Schwaz.
The castle is located approx. 150 meters above the town of Schwaz and can be viewed from the outside at any time. Some parking spaces are available. The interesting museum and an inn in the castle have specific opening times, information on +43524265129. The small, well-kept castle complex is worth a visit just because of the view over Schwaz and the Inn Valley with the mountains in the background.
info
How to get there: The castle is located directly above Schwaz, but it is not easy to reach it by car, as you have to find your way through a labyrinth of alleys. If you don't know Schwaz, you should have a GPS with you. Also, there is a "wrong way" that goes over a dirt road. So if you end up on the dirt road, turn around because you're wrong. The right way leads through the Burggasse alley. There is parking on site.
