Berchtold Buweli had the predecessor of Holligen Castle (probably a castle) built from 1312 to 1333 . The oldest part of today's facility is the Donjon , built around 1500 on behalf of the Bernese mayor Wilhelm von Diesbach .
The residential area in the common quarter consists of terraced houses on the left and right of Schlosstrasse to Huberstrasse, which are relatively symmetrical in a north-south direction. To the right of Huberstrasse is the castle park with allotment gardens. In the north these were redesigned into the new development area Huebergass , where 100 new apartments are being built.
