History
The Obertettelham Castle was the home of the Lords of Tettelham, who were administrators of the Counts of Kraiburg and later the Counts of Plain. In 1343, it was acquired by the Archbishop of Salzburg, Ortolf von Weißeneck and later became the site of a court of the Archbishopship of Salzburg. After being destroyed by a fire, the castle was rebuilt in 1505 under Archbishop Leonhard von Keutschach. In 1697, the administrative court was moved to Waging and the castle was left to decay to its current state.
