The elements of copf style can easily be recognised on the castle. The balcony above the main entrance rests on hermas. The protruding middle part of the castle is a three-axe battlement with attic rooms. The median risalit of the facade has a tympanum decorated with a coat of arms. The upper rooms are covered with  plastered mirror ceiling. The roof of the  approximately 150m high Great Hall is  the  coffin-lid type.The extreme height of the upper triple windows, which lightens the hall, is an  architectural feature, characteristic of Maria Theresa’s period.
