Schloss Prielau or Prielau Castle (also called Prilla or Prüel) is a former prince-bishop's hunting lodge on the shore of Lake Zell in the municipality of Maishofen in the district of Zell am See in Salzburg, Austria. The castle, which is used as a hotel, is under German Foundation for Monument Conservation. Schloss Prielau was first mentioned in 1425 under Christian Glaser zu Prielau. In 1466, Polycarp von Hunt owned the farm. The building was rebuilt between 1560 and 1565 by Hans Christoph Perner von Rettenwörth into the general structure you see today. In 1577, Caspar Panicher owned Wolckersdorff and included it in his name. At that time, Panicher was a provost in the Fusch and a judge in Zell am See. He was succeeded by his daughter Anna, who married to Christoph von Hirschau. In 1590, the property passed into the possession of Dietrich Kuen-Belasy, Freiherr von Chiemsee, and remained in Kuen-Belasy's possession until 1722 when the Diocese of Chiemsee acquired the property. In 1803, the diocese was secularized. The last prince-bishop to use the palace was Sigmund Christoph von Waldburg-Zeil-Trauchburg (whose coat of arms can still be seen on the castle gate). In 1811, the castle was auctioned off to the sacristan Anton Neumayer. More information...
