In the early 14th century, the castle belonged to the Lords of Ehningen. The castle changed hands several times and is now privately owned.

The old walls have seen worse times in their long history. However, the history of the castle is partly shrouded in mystery. What is certain is that there was a "Bürgle" in Holzgerlingen as early as the 11th century. What it looked like is not known. More details can be found out by looking at the year 1362. That was the year that the Gothic foundations on which the castle still stands were built. But even they only allow us to guess what the castle might have looked like back then. The loopholes and the Dürnitz in the basement suggest that it was a defensive structure. This could have been available to farmers as a place of refuge in times of need. The Dürnitz was probably inhabited by the lords or bailiffs of Holzgerlingen. There are also some question marks over the owners of the castle. It is documented that it was purchased by Countess Elisabeth von Henneberg in 1363 and 18 years later - like all of Holzgerlingen - became the property of the House of Württemberg. Later on, the castle changed hands frequently.

The builder of the castle, which still exists today, was Jakob von Gültlingen (d. 1600). A stone on the ground floor bearing the date 1592 likely marks the start of construction. In order to begin the prestigious new construction of his family residence, he had to take on significant debt. In 1592, he also asked his sovereign for permission to pledge the village of Deufringen as collateral to a lender for 12 years. In his letter, he lamented the dilapidated condition of the old half-timbered building his ancestors had erected there, which clearly no longer met his standards for a residence befitting his status. Elsewhere, for example, in Mauren (1617), Mötzingen (from c. 1581-83), and Poltringen, the local nobility also invested in new, modern family residences. Source: Zeitreise BB

All towers look great

The Red Tower, also known as the Thieves' Tower, was part of Weil der Städte's 15th century city wall and was located at the northeast corner of the former city fortifications. The tower, built in the 15th century, served as a prison at the time, particularly on the ground floor, which was used as a dungeon.
