Half-timbered wing of the castle

The stone house, originally built around 1250, was finally expanded into a castle with a moat and drawbridge. The farm buildings belonging to the castle have not been preserved. The builders were the local nobility from Oßweil, who ultimately bequeathed the castle to the lords of Kaltental , who were wealthy in neighboring Aldingen .

The Kaltentaler had the castle gradually converted into a palace in the 15th and 16th centuries. They erected several buildings, including the half-timbered wing still preserved today, in 1584/85 and added a stair tower to the tower in 1566. In 1595 the castle received the courtyard gate, which has been preserved to this day. The drawbridge was replaced by a stone bridge. The bridge and moat were preserved until the end of the 19th century.

In 1621 the Kaltentaler sold the castle to the needy of Hohenberg ( Hochberg ). 1646 sold the emergency detention to the Bidembach family . Of these, the castle in 1748 came to Duke Carl Eugen , who is one himself Rococo - Love Room instituted.
