In 1577 brothers Karl and Hans Rosenberger built the castle in the heart of Zell am See. Over the following centuries its use and ownership changed several times: the building housed a tavern, a forestry office, a mining administration, and a district court that was based here until 1908. This varied history is still reflected in the architecture of the building today.<\/p>\n\n
In 1970 the municipality of Zell am See acquired the castle and converted it into the town hall it is today. Since then, Rosenberg Castle has not only been the seat of the city administration but also an important meeting place for residents and tourists alike. The harmonious combination of historic fabric and modern administration makes it a special example of successful heritage architecture.<\/p>\n\n
