The core of the complex, built on a rocky outcrop jutting out to the east, dates back to the 12th century and is a conglomerate of buildings from the 12th to the 18th century.
The first documented mention of a "Heinrich de Sulperge" was in the tradition codex of Windberg Monastery. From the 12th to the 14th century, the Saulbergers are documented as lords of Saulburg. From 1332 to 1482, the Dukes of Bavaria were lords of Saulburg. From 1508 to 1520, Heinrich, Christoph and Ludwig, the Westendorfers of Saulburg, were named, then Bernhard.
