Pipe cup with a castle

[sajtikus]

Any ideas which castle is it?

The letters on the bottom are: “schemnip”?

I think that says Chemnitz. That’s a city in Germany.

Looks to me like it actually says “SCHEMNITZ”, not Chemnitz. That's the old German name for an industrial town that was originally in the Austrian-Hungarian Empire. Since the creation of Czechoslovakia in 1919, it has been referred to by its Slovak name of Banská Štiavnica.

The town has two castles: Starý zámok (the Old castle) and Nový zámok (the New castle, although it’s 16th Century).

It’s a nice find. These wind caps are colloquially known as “bonnets”.
