The Hoyerberg is a moraine hill, meaning it was pushed forward as a pile of rubble by a glacier and left here at the end of the Ice Age.
The Hoyerberg Castle is currently closed, but the paths offer beautiful views of Lindau and Lake Constance, with a magnificent mountain backdrop. Another vantage point also offers a view of the hinterland, including the Entensberg and Ringoldsberg mountains.

The so-called "Gruberschlösschen" is a villa on the summit of the Hoyerberg. After Adolf Gruber inherited the Lindenhof estate from his brother in 1850, he acquired the vineyard – the eastern part of the Hoyerberg. Dora Gruber had a villa built on this vantage point in 1854 by the architect Christoph Kunkler from St. Gallen. The house bears similarities to the Schweizerhaus in Lindenhof Park, and the almost 15-meter-high, freestanding observation tower was built in the Italian style with a flat roof and an open top floor.

On January 31, 1918, the Gruber family sold the Hoyerberg and the little castle to the municipality of Hoyren. Today, it is owned by the city of Lindau. Until the end of 2012, the castle housed a gourmet restaurant.
