Kinheim Castle was the ancestral seat of the von Kinheim family, who were knights by birth. The family, which was first mentioned in 1293 with Johann von Kinheim, became extinct in the middle of the 15th century in the male line, while the castle was already divided among the heirs at the beginning of the 15th century.

The building complex, which consists of the upper castle on the left and the lower castle on the right as well as the slender four-storey gate tower in between, was built with thick walls from slate rubble. On the ground floor of the originally two-storey castle house, which was able to retain its castle character up to the 19th century, there were once only loopholes, while the upper floor had narrow slit windows. The interior of the upper castle was entered through a wide, round-arched door on the left behind the tower walls; the entrance to the lower castle is still through a door from the inner courtyard.
