A compact castle of pale stone stands beside a slow river at the edge of an autumn forest. Its round corner towers have dark conical roofs, and a covered wooden gallery overlooks a courtyard enclosed by ivy-covered walls. An old bridge crosses the river toward a gate framed by carved hunting scenes. Copper, crimson, and yellow leaves gather along the water and the muddy approach road. Gentle sunlight filters through thinning branches, illuminating the castle’s upper windows while the forest floor remains shaded beneath tangled roots and fallen foliage.
