The first documented mention by Walter von Wellenberg dates back to 1204. In the course of the end of the interregnum by Rudolf von Habsburg, the people of Zurich destroyed and burned the castle in 1258 because it had been used for raids on the surrounding area. Ulrich von Wellenberg and his two nephews were imprisoned in Zurich and ultimately had to swear a feud. They also owned the right of residence in Frauenfeld. In 1370, as a fief of the Reichenau monastery, Wellenberg Castle came into the hands of the von Strass family, who handed over the property to the Lords of Hohenlandenberg around 1370. The dominion of Wellenberg included jurisdiction over Wellhausen, Thundorf and the surrounding farms, as well as the bailiwicks of Mettendorf, Eschikofen and Lustorf. The Hohenlandenbergs were servants of the Habsburgs and were successful in the run-up to the Appenzell Wars. They ruled at the same time from Frauenfeld Castle and Sonnenberg Castle. Margarethe von Hohenlandenberg donated the castle chaplaincy in 1450, from which the parish of Felben later developed. Around 1513 the legendary Jakob Mötteli von Rappenstein acquired the castle in Wellenberg. In 1537, the rule came into the possession of the Lords of Ulm for around 130 years. Shortly before the Thirty Years' War, Gregor von Ulm reinforced the castle's defenses and weapons. In 1669, Johannes Escher acquired the property on behalf of the city of Zurich, which in turn sold it to Joachim Leonz Eder on November 17, 1815. On March 24th, 1900, the siblings Nikolaus, Verena and Louise Bienz sold the estate together with the castle to the Schenkel family. In 2002 the castle was placed under federal protection. Two years later, as part of the 800th anniversary celebrations at Wellenberg Castle, the Wellenberg Castle Foundation was set up.[1]
