Schloss Steinegg, 13th-century castle in Hüttwilen, Switzerland

The stone castle features a southwestern wing with original fortress elements, southeastern wing with rondelles, and Neo-Renaissance architectural modifications from 1886.

First documented in 1357, Schloss Steinegg served as residence for the Zurich Vogt from 1584 to 1798 and underwent reconstruction after a fire between 1517 and 1520.

The castle represents Swiss architectural evolution, combining medieval defensive elements with later Neo-Renaissance modifications by architect Christian Friedrich Hahn.

Located at coordinates 47.6187, 8.85637 in Thurgau canton, the castle underwent extensive renovations in 2011 to preserve its historical structure.

The castle operated as a nature healing and fasting clinic established by Dr. P. Maag in 1901, managed by the Society for Public Health.
