城は1679年から1691年にかけて、中世のウォーターキャッスルに代わって、ホーエンローエ＝キュンツェルザウ伯爵ヨハン・ルートヴィヒによって4翼の複合施設として建設されました。1679年から1868年までホーエンローエ家の居城であり、1873年から1934年まで教員養成学校でした。1937年から1939年にかけて建物は完全に改築され、今日では寄宿舎付きの州立ギムナジウムが入居しています。

The castle dates back to the Middle Ages and was expanded into its current form in the 15th century. It is picturesquely situated on the banks of the Jagst River and impresses with its solid stonework and historic flair. Today, it is privately owned but houses, among other things, a hotel and serves as a venue for the Jagsthausen Castle Festival, where Goethe's "Götz von Berlichingen" is performed annually on the open-air stage.

Around 1250, Kraft von Boxberg built Lichteneck Castle, which was presumably destroyed by lightning in the mid-15th century. Today, one can enjoy a wonderful view of the Kocher Valley from here.

The moated castle in the heart of the town of Neuenstein, dating back to the Staufer period in the 12th century, was once a residence of the Princes of Hohenlohe-Öhringen. Around 1550 it was expanded into an impressive Renaissance residence. Since around 1700 the castle has no longer served as the residence of the House of Hohenlohe, but was used for various other purposes until the Hohenlohe Museum was opened there in 1878.

The current complex, consisting of the two-winged core building, was built by the von Berlichingen family in the 15th and 16th centuries. Götzenburg was the birthplace of the "Knight with the Iron Hand", Götz von Berlichingen was born here in 1480. The designs of the Ulm Minster master builder August von Beyer led to the largest remodeling of the castle between 1876 and 1878, during which the south wing and the gate tower were built and the park around the complex was laid out.

Bartenau Castle is a castle in Künzelsau in the north-east of Baden-Württemberg. The noble family of Stein is documented in Künzelsau from the 11th century. After they died out, their relatives, such as the Lords of Künzelsau and the Lords of Bartenau, inherited the estate of the Stein family. The von Künzelsau family built their Kunzelsawe Castle around 1248. After the Künzelsau family died out in 1341, their residence became Bartenau Castle. When the Lords of Bartenau also died out, the Lords of Stetten inherited the castle in 1390, which they sold in part to the Archbishopric of Mainz in 1484. Bartenau Castle passed to the House of Hohenlohe through inheritance. Count Johann Ludwig von Hohenlohe-Langenburg-Gleichen had Bartenau Castle demolished in 1679 and built a three-storey castle in the late Renaissance style with four round towers in its place. From 1873 onwards, the building served as a teacher training college, then as an educational institution, and today it houses a state secondary school with boarding school.
