The "Krenking Castle" is probably originally a Staufer complex and was built around 1200. After the fire of 1640 and conversions in 1892/1893 to the Baden district office, the facility was changed significantly. In essence, it is a two-wing complex with a round stair tower.
Today there is a police station and a notary's office.
