    The city tour and the Echaz water adventure trail pass by here.
    The castle was built around 1540 and is now a city history museum.

        The Schlössle (Swabian for "little castle") in Pfullingen, in the Reutlingen district of Baden-Württemberg, is a late medieval half-timbered building built in the 15th century by the Remp family, a local nobleman from Pfullingen. Today, it houses the town's history museum and is one of the town's most famous buildings. The Schlössle should not be confused with Pfullingen Castle, which is located about 130 meters northwest.
        The Schlössle is located in Pfullingen on a hilltop in the Schlösslespark, named after it, above the Echaz River and in the immediate vicinity of the Baumann Mill. Together with the Schlösslesscheuer opposite and the Doctor's House, it forms a building ensemble in the center of the park.


        The building consists of a base floor made of fieldstone masonry and a two-story half-timbered extension that projects approximately 40 cm on all sides and measures approximately 12.5 meters by 8.0 meters. A vaulted cellar extends approximately halfway down the building, accessible only via an external staircase. The roof is a half-hipped roof with owl holes for smoke extraction, and is now covered with plain shingles. The building does not have a chimney. The basement consists of a single room with a pointed arch door, illuminated only by narrow window openings. It contains two wooden pillars that support the structure.

        The upper floor is not accessible via the basement but must be entered via a covered external staircase. It follows a three-aisled structure: On either side of the Ern, which runs perpendicular to the street, are two rooms. On the right side, as seen from the entrance, is the living room at the front and the former kitchen at the rear. On the left side are two chambers. The living room has a vaulted beamed ceiling and a protruding band of windows running around the corner, a so-called Alemannic bay window. From the outside, this room layout, including the vaulted living room ceiling, is clearly visible in the timber framing. The space between the ceiling of the room and the floor of the room above was filled with chaff to insulate the room, which, apart from the kitchen, was the only heated room in the building. Countless snail shells were found in the floor of the room, which are believed to have also served as thermal insulation.
