The ruins of the moated castle, first mentioned in writing in 1131, now belong to the 250-year-old Forsthof Hüttelngesäß. In 1403, Archbishop Johann II von Nassau granted the right to open Hüttelngesäß Castle. From there, together with Mömbris Castle, which is often incorrectly referred to as Womburg, and Hauenstein Castle, the area of the upper Kahl and Lohr, which was under Rieneck's influence, was secured. Two years later, on February 22, 1405, the castle burned down during the Wetterau war of robbers.
