History+

The exact period of the Ehingerburg's construction and decline is not known. As a hilltop castle, it served the Imperial Barons of Ehingen, who took their name from Ehingen, a present-day district of Rottenburg am Neckar. The complex was situated on the so-called "Schlossfelsen" above the Katzenbach Valley. Its castle hill was relatively small, measuring approximately 5 to 7 meters in width and 12 meters in length.
