The area's name, still in use today, indicates the former possessions of the Teutonic Order in Güglingen. In fact, the Teutonic Order, along with numerous monasteries and other institutions, can be documented as receiving tithes in the 16th century. The buildings surrounding the square bear witness to the various historical periods that give Güglingen its distinctive character: The remains of the old walls, now adorned with a picturesque, romantic "defensive" walkway, testify to the town's status as a city that adopted the Bering as its external symbol. The Duke's Wine Press is a remarkable document of the four centuries of its existence as an administrative town of Württemberg.

The German Court was established by Duke Ludwig von Württemberg around 1570. The Herzogskelter with band house and the tithe barn are still preserved from the complex. The buildings were extensively renovated around 1980. Today the Herzogskelter houses a hotel, the Zehntscheuer a bank. Various casts of Roman stone monuments are embedded in the masonry of the German Court.
