The present castle complex was built in the late 13th century by the Lords of Stubenberg, who used it as a residence and administrative centre. Around 1550, the castle was rebuilt in Renaissance style. After the Stubenberg family moved its residence in 1739, the castle was abandoned and gradually fell into ruin. In 1955, Count Stubenberg began rebuilding the castle within the old walls and adapting it as a castle hotel. In 1992, the municipality of Kapfenberg acquired the property. The castle now contains exhibition rooms, event spaces and a falconry. Visitors can take part in guided tours, medieval-themed activities and birds-of-prey demonstrations. It also hosts the annual Ritterfest, a medieval festival featuring knight displays, music, theatre, craft markets and falconry shows.
