The Winzenburg is said to have been an important fortification up until the 10th century. Its last owners were the Counts of Regenstein, who used the already decaying castle in the late Middle Ages. Incidentally, the Winzenburg Tower is not related to the Germanic fortifications. This structure was built in 1860 as an observation tower.
