Kronsegg was first mentioned as a Passau property around 1250 as “Chranzek”. The castle was probably built by the Lords of Maissau towards the end of the 12th century or at the beginning of the 13th century at the latest. At the beginning of the 14th century, Kronsegg was a fiefdom of the Kuenringers, whose retainer Arnold the Praunsdorfer was based here in 1309. In 1354, the fiefdom was purchased by Ulrich the Neidegger and transferred to Eberhard V. von Walsee, who probably built a large new building incorporating older components.
