Schloss Schafisheim is a small, late-Gothic style castle in the center of Schafisheim. This is the oldest castle in Aargau, which was not designed as a fortification from the start, but as a residential building. The building was erected a few years after the Battle of Sempach (1386) on behalf of the Lords of Baldegg, whose ancestral seat had been destroyed by the Confederates during the turmoil of war. The exact year of construction is not known, the first documentary mention of the castle was in 1474. The building served as the residence of the holders of the jurisdiction of Schafisheim within the subject area of the city of Bern. In 1482, the Baldeggers, who were in financial difficulties, sold the castle and court rule to the Hallwylers. In 1736, after the Hallwyler line in Schafisheim had died out, the Bernese transferred ownership to the brothers Samuel and Etienne Brutel, descendants of French Huguenots who had fled Montpellier. In 1802 the castle came into the possession of the community of Schafisheim. After several changes of ownership, the castle is still privately owned today.

middle Ages The tower was built between 1361 and 1363 by the Counts of Habsburg under Duke Rudolf IV of Austria. It served as a cornerstone of Zofingen's city wall and as a powder, armory and torture chamber. The Powder Tower was one of six main towers until it was softened in the 19th century, including the Water Tower, the Mint Tower and the Torture Tower. There are only a few documentary records of the history of the tower, as many documents were lost in the town fires. Todays use At the end of the 19th century, the lowest floor was rented out as an ice cellar, the upper floors remained unused due to rotten stairs and served as a shelter for pigeons and bats. In 1948, the artillery club in Zofingen and the surrounding area rented the tower and had to assume certain maintenance obligations. First there was an exterior and roof renovation, followed by an interior renovation that lasted until 1951. After a second expansion phase from 1977 to 1978, another exterior renovation took place from 1980 to 1981. In 2001, the kitchen and toilet facilities were renewed. Today, the powder tower with the powder tower room is one of the most important cultural assets in the city of Zofingen. The Pulverturmstube can be rented for events with a tower attendant present at the Zofingen Artillery Club and offers space for 30 people.
