Nestled amidst a sprawling park, Schloss Glanegg beckons. Schloss Glanegg stands proudly on a wooded hill just west of the Glanegg village. A stately beech avenue leads you to the Meierhof, painting a picture of grandeur. Schloss Glanegg has seen centuries pass. It was mentioned as an archbishopric seat as early as 1350. It also served as the seat of a local court for an extended period. This court’s jurisdiction stretched across villages on both sides of the Salzach River. Archbishop Leonhard von Keutschach played a crucial role in shaping Schloss Glanegg’s destiny. He revitalized the decaying structure, transforming it into the inhabited tower castle we see today. In 1529, the tower’s roof underwent renovations. Years later, in 1574, Duke William V of Cleve graced the castle with his presence. The Keltenallee, a straight path, connects Schloss Glanegg to Schloss Hellbrunn. Under Paris Lodron’s rule, the castle became part of a valley barrier, fortifying Salzburg’s hinterland. This involved constructing a wall toward the Untersberg mountain to secure the Glanegg Pass. The castle has witnessed both construction and destruction. In 1710, a gate was built between the hare and pheasant gardens. However, in 1715, a rotunda above the surrounding wall collapsed, and the wall suffered damage again in 1741. During the War of the Austrian Succession, Schloss Glanegg was refortified, reflecting its strategic importance. The ownership of Schloss Glanegg has changed hands many times. In 1812, physician Franz de Paula Storch acquired the property and commissioned the construction of a chapel at the foot of the hill, consecrated in 1840. His widow later sold the estate to Count Aloys von Arco-Stepperg in 1849. Since 1896, Schloss Glanegg has been under the ownership of the Mayr-Melnhof family of Salzburg. While the castle itself remains private, the surrounding park offers a glimpse into its history.
