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.

The castle park was purchased by the municipality and laid out in its current form between 1982 and 1988.

A particularly dramatic episode occurred in 1525 during the German Peasants' War. The peasants, rebelling against the oppression and high taxes of the nobles, laid siege to Neipperg Castle. The siege was fierce and the castle's defenders had to stand up bravely against the attackers. Eventually the Lords of Neipperg managed to repel the siege, but the damage to the castle was considerable. After the war, the castle was rebuilt and reinforced to better withstand future attacks. These events shaped the history of the castle and made it a symbol of the resistance and steadfastness of the Lords of Neipperg.

In the heart of Gemmingen, between the castle courtyard and Wiesenstrasse, is the old stately castle park, which was acquired and renovated by the municipality of Gemmingen in the 1980s. The idea behind it was English gardening. The center of the site today is the castle park pond, which is fed by its own spring, the Murrbach, and mainly by an old pipe from the Losterbach spring. Adjacent to the northern bank is an octagonal wooden pavilion. There are various events, concerts, children's performances and also an open-air cinema. Every two years, the park festival takes place across the entire area, organized by Gemmingen and Stebbach clubs. Not far from the pavilion, on the edge of the path, you will come across a bronze group, the Gänseliesel. It was donated by a Gemmingen citizen. There is also an old war memorial in a clearing in the trees. The castle park is now the green heart of the municipality and is an integral part of community life. (Source: Heilbronnerland.de)

Interesting story about the women of Weinsberg who are said to have carried their husbands up the mountain on their backs. Magnificent views of the Weinsberger Valley and historic sites with prominent visitors.

Beautiful designer giant bench on the ascent. In winter, the ruin only opens at 11 a.m. Well lit at night.

Ancestral castle of the Lords and Counts of Neipperg The Hohenstaufen castle complex has been owned by the Neipperg family since its beginnings. With its two mighty towers, the hilltop castle watches over the town of the same name, Neipperg, and shapes the image of the small wine village. First mentioned in 1212, Neipperg Castle consists of two castles that are located right next to each other (and also belong together), but are structurally completely separate: the lower and the upper castle. Only the impressive keep remains of the lower castle. Around 1500, the upper castle complex was converted into a fortified palace. The last major structural changes were made by Count Alfred von Neipperg, who from 1850 onwards concentrated on the agricultural use of the castle complex. The view from Neipperg Castle stretches far over the wine landscape of the Zabergäu. Many hiking and cycling trails lead past the imposing castle and connect the popular viewing areas of Zweifelberg and Hörnle. If you explore the Heuchelberg, you shouldn't miss Neipperg Castle. https://www.neckar-zaber-tourismus.de/poi/burg-neipperg
