      Weitenburg Castle looks back on an eventful and long history and has been owned by the Barons von Rassler since 1720. In 1583, Jakob von Ehingen built the main building of Weitenburg, which can still be recognized today by its mighty walls and stepped gables.

        Weitenburg Castle is located in the Neckar Valley in the Starzach municipality between Börstingen and Sulzau on the northern slope of the valley. A fortified fortified castle stood high above the Neckar as early as 1062. The Lords of Weitingen are believed to be the builders. Over the centuries, it was expanded into a three-wing residential palace, the various architectural styles of which reflect the spirit of the Renaissance, Baroque and Neo-Gothic periods
