The "Schlössle", which rises on a hill above the Lauter, is the jewel of Oberlenningen. It was built in the years 1593-1596 by Messrs. Schilling von Cannstatt and was a local aristocratic residence of the late Middle Ages. Today the community library is on the 1st floor and the "Museum for Paper and Book Art" on the 2nd floor.

Hiking

It is not without reason that the Schlössle is referred to as a "fortunate stroke of luck in terms of monument preservation". It was built between 1593 and 1596 by the Schillings of Cannstatt and is a characteristic local noble residence of the late Middle Ages. The building is a rarity in terms of monument preservation because it was never fundamentally rebuilt or rejuvenated after it was built and therefore still shows a surprising amount of its original furnishings.
