The castle was built in the first half of the twelfth century by the Counts Lechgemünd. After many ups and downs, Mittersill Castle was renovated after the Second World War. As part of this, the Sport & Shooting Club was founded in the castle - at that time one of the most exclusive clubs in the world. Royal personalities, the money nobility and the rich and beautiful from Hollywood were regular guests and spent their best time in the castle. Princess Soraya of Persia, Aristotle Onassis, Bob Hope, Gina Lollobrigida or Coco Chanel, to name just a few. In 2009 the property fell into Pinzgauer hand and was renovated with a keen sense for tradition.
