The castle was built in the 12th century by the Wolf family, but its present form was given to it in 1727. These works have transformed him into a stately building of Baroque workmanship. On its facades, 365 windows open.

In the cellars there is a space dedicated to children, in which they can learn by playing so many curiosities about the animal world.

The “H. Multscher” Museum is located next to the Parish Church of 'Our Lady of the Swamps'. Inside it preserves the famous doors of the altar by Hans Multscher and some pieces belonging to the former Civic Museum, among which we can admire some coats of arms and chests belonging to the ancient families of the Vipiteno. Of great interest are the plates of Hans Multscher, which were lost during the fascist period, and only in 1959 they were returned to the city of Vipiteno again. Today, they are among the most precious objects of the Multscher Museum.
