Deufringen Castle

Highlight • Castle

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.

June 9, 2025,Schloss Deufringen – Storrenberg - Höhnle

A short loop, mostly on beautiful meadow paths around Deufringen and Dachtel. Beautiful views from Storrenberg and Höhnle. Since the trails mostly don't run through the forest, this tour is not recommended on hot days.

Yesterday evening it got quite late because of birthday celebrations and today the sky was a bit gloomy so you couldn't be sure whether the weather would stay dry. So it was better to go on a tour nearby. So we decided on a country tour. We started in Deufringen on Irmweg (corner of Gäustraße) by the old glass container …

Our goal was a sunny walk along lushly blooming blackthorn hedges. The hedges still need a bit of blooming, though, and instead of sunshine, a cold wind whistled.

It was still lovely, a Sunday walk through nature with the four of us.
