Obermontani Castle Chapel St. Stephen in Morter

The castle was built in 1228 by Albert II of Tirol. The complex comprised the largely built over ring wall with Romanesque swallowtail crenellations, the keep with two semi-circular doors on the first floor, the completely ruined great hall and a second, originally freestanding residential building with a marble-framed semi-circular portal on the first floor. The chapel, standing on a steep cliff top below the castle, is of Romanesque origin; in its present-day form, however, it is largely a new construction from the early 15th century.
