The castle was presumably built by the Weissenburg Monastery (St. Peter and Paul) to protect a crossing over the Rhine. The warlike Alemanni and Hungarian cavalry came up the river from the southeast.

After the castle was abandoned, it was thoroughly demolished and the material used for other buildings. Today, only the hill and the ditch-like cut remain.

An explanatory panel is available.
