history
The place was first mentioned in 804 as "Cruaninga".
Grüningen came to the Counts of Württemberg via the Counts of Veringen at the end of the 12th century , who established the line of the Counts of Grüningen-Landau there. The seat of the counts was the "Upper Castle" near the parish church of St. Blasius.
The "Lower Castle" built on an artificial mound in the middle of the village, however, became the seat of the Grünberg ministry .
Grüningen came to the barons of Hornstein around 1300 (see coat of arms), to whom it still belonged at the time of the mediatization in 1806 (estate and castle to this day), when the place fell again under Württemberg s rule.
