As early as 1301/1307 Poing was mentioned as Sedlhof of the Seeon Abbey, in 1404 the castle was first mentioned as "Veste Poygen". In 1435 it was the headquarters of Hofmark Truchtlaching.

description

The castle on a natural island in the here somewhat wider Alz consisted of a core castle on the island and an outer castle on the southern Alzufer, which served as the meierhof of the castle and was connected to the main castle via a footbridge. The core castle contained a main residential building and a separate grain box located up the Alz . Today only overgrown remains of the foundation wall are preserved, and when the water is low, the bridge pillars of the footbridge are supposedly visible. The Burgstall is now a ground monument .

The outer bailey is still largely preserved, it consists of a "court wing" and a manor house, the former rectory of the 17th century, and a well house with a pointed roof. The core of today's buildings date from the 15th century, which were supplemented during the 19th century.
