The castle dates back to a medieval castle. After destruction in the War of the Palatinate Succession, the ruined complex was demolished except for the old keep. The current buildings, used for administrative purposes, date from the 18th century. The main building of the complex was also rebuilt in the course of the 18th century. It served as the seat of the Wiesloch district office from 1810 to 1938 and is now used as a police station.
