We were there for a knight's banquet, a fantastic experience. I highly recommend it. The staff was super friendly and the atmosphere was fantastic. The food was truly amazing.

Today I was served a wonderful Swabian Dennete in the middle of the castle courtyard. Very friendly, dedicated staff, a very pleasant atmosphere! - The castle tavern is currently (September 2025) open on weekends. Saturdays from 12 p.m. to 8 p.m., Sundays from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.

From the history of the city and the guild Saulgau, still called Sulgen in the Middle Ages, was surrounded by a city wall in the 14th century, into which 3 gate towers were built. Source and further information: https://www.dorauszunft.de/ueber-uns/geschichte.html

One of the last remaining towers of the city wall. Worth seeing from inside and outside the city walls

Bachritterburg, Kanzach The history of the Bach Knights can probably be described in close unity with the genealogy of the Lords of Pflummern but also with the ruling situation in Kanzach. “Lords of Kanzach” are mentioned several times in documents from the 12th to 14th centuries. First it is Bernardus and his son Ortolfus who are named as witnesses in documents from Bishop Otto of Constance and Duke Henry of Bavaria and Saxony for the Salem monastery in 1169 and 1171. With the next mention in 1227, the Kanzach local nobility probably moved to Pflummern. Kanzach is subsequently a branch of the Pflummer family castle. In the document from 1227, Bilgerinum de Pphlumnar and his son Ortolfum de Cantza are named as witnesses. Bilgerinum (vulgo) Peregrinus, the knight from and to Pflummern (from the Chronicle of the Lords of Pflummern, Aloys von Pflummern 1795) is considered the progenitor of the Lords of Pflummern. This knight's seat was donated to the Reichenau Monastery by the then Swabian Duke Berchthold, who had his seat on the Bussen. He was later freed from this and given his own nobility. In 1180 Peregrinus was steward to Emperor Philip, the Duke of Swabia. Peregrinus is considered a co-founder of the monasteries of Salem, St. Gallen and Heiligkreuztal (written down by Father Bucelini, a well-known historian and Benedictine monk from Weingarten Abbey). After his father's death (1227), his son Ortolph also became steward (to Emperor Friedrich II).

This is really worth seeing. Too bad the tavern was closed.

Beverage tax for the city wall, Bad Saulgau The city fortifications were probably of poor quality from the beginning - also due to the notorious lack of money. As early as 1372, therefore, Duke Leopold III. the city the privilege of collecting a "wine fee", i.e. a kind of beverage tax, in order to be able to pay for repairs to the wall. The city's statutes also mention fines that anyone who breaks the wall has to pay. In any case, the Saulgau people seem to have had no confidence in the defensive effectiveness of their city walls. Because in 1641 the people of Riedlingen were informed on request, "... since the city wall had collapsed, one did not want to and could not defend oneself in the slightest."

City fortifications, Bad Saulgau Saulgau was fortified very early; "in burgo sulgen" was documented as early as 1249, which indicates that the town was fortified. This consisted of a wide moat, which was followed by the city wall, which in many places also formed the outer wall of the houses. Thus, the house owners were responsible for construction and maintenance. In some places, such as the city museum, Buchau office building, Bogengasse 15 or the Heim bakery, this combination of house wall and city wall is still preserved. In some places, a low outer wall was also in front of the moat.
