Schloss Oberstockstall lies in the small village of Oberstockstall to the north of Wagram. The castle is a Renaissance building built in the middle of the 16th century on the foundations of a much older mediaeval structure. It boasts a fine early Gothic chapel which was the location of an important archaeological discovery; the extensive remains of a 16th century alchemist’s laboratory. The castle was extended in the 17th century. For a period of its history, the building was in the possession of the Bishops of Passau and, at one time, even functioned as their administrative seat.
