Large lawn with a view of the castle. The shade of the trees makes it wonderful in summer. Together with the playground next door, it is also ideal for families with small children.

In 1538, Duke Ulrich in Schorndorf began expanding the old fortifications into a modern, bastioned earth wall fortress. First, the "castle" was built in its present form with the four round towers and a large catering magazine in the basement in place of the old castle. The bastions were initially built as roundels. Then work began on creating a 30 meter wide earth wall and a 35 meter wide moat. The ramparts, which were almost two kilometers long, made the Schorndorf project the most expensive undertaking in the state fortifications. In the years 1811 to 1880, essential parts of the fortifications were removed. In the meantime, the remains of the casemates, the former castle bastion, hidden in the ground have been uncovered.

Magnificent view towards Burg Teck and the A8

Today's castle emerged from a castle that was probably built around 1230 by Count Egino von Aichelberg.[1] The knight Ernst von Filseck was mentioned in a document in 1268. Since he was an Aichelberg servant, it is likely that the castle was still owned by the Aichelberg people at that time.[1] The family remained the owner until 1318, when Diepold von Aichelberg and his sons sold the castle to Eberhard I of Württemberg, from whom it was given to the Reuß von Reußenstein family around 1350, in whose ownership it remained for around 200 years. In 1568 the Reuß family sold the imperial manor to the mayor of Göppingen, Balthasar Moser, from whom Dietrich von Gemmingen acquired it just five years later. He sold the unprofitable property in 1596 to Burkhardt von Berlichingen, who began replacing the old castle complex with a more comfortable castle in the Renaissance style in 1597/98. Today's north wing and part of the east wing were given roughly their current shape. In 1608, Burkhardt left the new building to his five heir daughters, in particular Anna Margaretha and her husband Colonel Otto von Vohenstein. In 1648 their son-in-law, Major Matthias Georg Fischer von Rob, took over the facility, which remained in the possession of his son Ludwig Friedrich and his wife Anna Elisabeth, née Neubronner von Eisenburg, until 1706.
