    A previous building was built around 1200 by the Lords of Steinach [1] mentioned for the first time around 1209. The two-story tower was probably built around 1230. The castle was acquired by Ludwig Vogelweider in 1481 [2] and, together with the remaining land, became the property of the St. Gallen Monastery in 1577 and was auctioned off in 1805 after its dissolution. The timber-framed upper storey was demolished in 1833. In 1975 the building was renovated under the direction of the Monument Preservation of the Canton of St. Gallen. Today the Steinerburg belongs to the Pfauenmoos family foundation of the Barons von Heyl zu Herrnsheim
