Lordship of Justingen
The rulership of Justingen with its seat in Justingen was handed down at the end of the 11th century.
In the Middle Ages, the village of Justingen had a local nobility based at Justingen Castle , which was related to the Lords of Steusslingen, Gundelfingen and Wildenstein .
After the lords of Justingen died out in 1343, the rule , which consisted of an estate and four villages (Justingen, Gundershofen , Hütten , Ingstetten ), came to the lords of Stöffeln and, after several changes, to the barons of Freyberg , who sold them to Württemberg in 1751 .
The approximately 24 square kilometers large and approximately 1600 inhabitants counting rule belonged to the Swabian Empire at the end of the 18th century .
