The Burgrest Jettenburg is a castle rest near the Ulrichskirche in Jettenburg, a district of Kusterdingen in the Tübingen district ( Baden-Württemberg ).

The castle, which was probably built around 1100, was the seat of the noble free von Jettenburg mentioned between 1100 and 1209. The castle was sold to Württemberg with the hamlet and lordship of Jettenburg in 1452 and fell into disrepair in 1480. From the former castle the watch tower or keep was preserved as the church tower of the former village church.
