In Buttenheim there was an upper and a lower castle. The upper castle burned down and was never rebuilt. The lower castle of Buttenheim is still inhabited by the barons of Seefried auf Buttenheim.

Today's Buttenheim Castle is the so-called Lower Castle, which originally served as a bower for the von Lichtenstein family and was taken over by the Stiebars in 1438, along with other properties in Buttenheim.

In addition to the castle, Buttenheim's beer cellars are also worth mentioning. There, you can enjoy a pleasant, atmospheric evening.
