It is located almost 50 meters above the Neunbronn valley mill property in the town of Schwäbisch Hall in the Schwäbisch Hall district in Baden-Württemberg .
history
The history of this small castle complex is completely unknown to this day, the name Hohenstatt Castle in modern maps cannot be proven. Also, no noble family of this name is mentioned that can be clearly assigned to this castle. According to Alois Schneider, it could have been built during the 12th or 13th century. Whether it can be associated with Hohenstein Castle on the western side of the valley opposite the Bühler cannot be proven either. Allegedly the castle was destroyed in 1461 by Duke Ludwig von Bayern together with Hohenstein, but since this news comes from a later time, it is also not proven. At the beginning of the modern era only the field name Burgstall existed .
