Kirchentellingsfurt Castle

The castle was built in 1560 by Hans Jakob Widmann von Mühringen. In 1594, ownership changed to the Dukes of Württemberg. In 1602, Peter Imhof bought the castle and the castle estates. He carried out the second construction phase, which essentially led to what can still be seen today. Between 1984 and 1988, the castle was extensively renovated by the municipality.
The Museum+
The cultural-historical collection in the castle has been accessible to the public since 1989. It is the result of many years of collecting and a donation from the late citizen Walter Tiedemann (1914-1989). The exhibits are very diverse and varied. On the first floor, one gains insight into the history of the town. A "Militaria Room" primarily contains exhibits from the 19th and 20th centuries, and much is also shown from the areas of bourgeois living and applied arts. Civil ceremonies still take place in the "Wedding Room" today. There is a fully furnished shoemaker's workshop, where the shoemaking craft is occasionally demonstrated. Old typewriters, mousetraps, crucifixes, Bibles, a butterfly collection, and many other everyday items from times past invite discovery.
