The manor is located on the outskirts of Stetten, secluded in the valley of the Lone, where the Swabian Alb meets the Danube valley.

The property was passed from the Kaltenburg knightly family, whose domain included the castle of the same name and the hamlet of Lontal, to the Lords of Riedheim in 1357. These free imperial barons, first mentioned in 1246, held the domain with brief interruptions until 1821 and called themselves “Lords of Stetten” from 1449 onwards.

In 1583, Christoph von Riedheim built the castle in Stetten as a three-story angle-hook building with tail gables and a park surrounded by walls and corner turrets. This building is now privately owned and is not accessible.

In 1634, the town and Stetten Castle burned down completely and after Johann Christoph von Riedheim died in 1645 without leaving any male descendants, his daughters sold the domain to Heinrich-Wilhelm von Hack.

In 1821, Count Maldeghem acquired the Stetten manor, as the place was called at the time, and built the Stettener Keller around 1830, which served as a beer and barrel storage facility.

In 1996, the Württemberg knights, whose knighthood had grown steadily in recent years, bought the Stettener Keller and carried out a major renovation.

In 2000, the complex, now known as the “Stetten manor”, was ready for occupancy and has since been restored piece by piece. Great importance is attached to bringing the property, built in the 19th century, into line with the architecture of the 13th century, while observing modern building regulations.
