History+

The origins of Steinhilben Castle, also called Steinhaus, likely date back to the 12th century. It is presumed to have been built by the Lords of Steinhilben, a branch of the lesser noble Märheld von Wurmlingen, who were first documented in 1247. The Steinhilben property probably passed early into the lordship of Trochtelfingen and was sold by the Counts of Hohenberg to Württemberg in 1310.
