history
It is likely that Kaltental Castle was built by the local nobility to control the Nesenbachtal . She is probably the legal successor to Möhringen Castle. The Lords of Kaltental were first mentioned in a document in 1125 . They were Guelph , later Tuebing ministerials . In 1278 they were enfeoffed with Aldingen am Neckar . Kaltental Castle was mentioned in 1281 when it was besieged by Esslingen citizens. In 1318 the lords of Kaltental sold the castle, which had been partially destroyed at that time, together with its members and subjects, and moved entirely to Aldingen. The new owner was Count Eberhardt the Illustrious . The castle remained in the possession of the Counts of Württemberg until Ulrich the Much Beloved enfeoffed a Wolf von Tachenhausen with the castle for his services in 1455. After several changes of ownership, the castle finally came to the Lords of Remchingen .
In 1696, Friedrich Gottlieb von Löwenstern bought the noble hereditary property in Kaltental from the Lords of Remchingen, his wife's family, including Kaltental Castle "with all rights, justice and burdens", the Meier and Mühlenhaus and income in kind for 10,000 fl . Of this amount, 5,000 fl. Had to be paid in cash, the remainder in installments to the stately iron factory in Königsbronn . Löwenstern sold the aristocratic hereditary estate in Kaltental with all rights, justice and burdens, as he had bought it in 1696 from the Lords of Remchingen, on July 18, 1709 to Duke Eberhard Ludwig von Württemberg . In the purchase letter of 1709, the following conditions were also included: The right of the Löwenstern family to pews and burial in the church in Möhringen on the Fildern , the payment of a key money of 100 thalers or 200 fl to Mrs. Loysa Gottliebe Freiin von Löwenstern, born von Remchingen, the whereabouts of the owner Hans Claus Martin until April 23, 1710 in the mill house, as well as the people living in the castle until November 11, 1709 and the takeover of the owner Johannes Rueffer. The castle was demolished in 1837. Nothing has been preserved from the former castle complex. Today the church of St. Antonius stands on the castle site .
