Here is a short excerpt from Wikipedia on Grenchen Castle / Bettleschloss:
"In the beginning, the Höhenburg consisted of a wooden castle and a rampart. It was only around 1150 that the owners, the barons of Grenchen, rebuilt it as a stone castle with a residential tower and several extensions. The main castle is on the Schlossfluh, the lower one Castle on the Hofacherfluh. The additions were enlarged and an oven installed until 1200. The castle was inhabited until the early 14th century. "
