Exploring Alttrauchburg castle ruin – Covering its history and architecture!
Nestled deep in the forests of Weitnau, the ruins of Alt-Trauchburg Castle hold centuries of history. Built around 1150, the castle became the seat of the Trauchburg family, with Berthold of Trauchburg serving Emperor Frederic II in 1224. Over the centuries, the castle changed hands several times, eventually becoming the central seat of the Waldburg family.
Despite surviving the wars of the 16th and 17th centuries, the castle was demolished in the late 18th century to build a new one nearby.
