Wülflingen Castle

Wülflingen Castle is a fortified complex from the 17th century situated on elevated ground in Winterthur's Weinberg area. The buildings display classic features of Swiss castle architecture with sturdy walls and a thoughtful layout.

The castle was built in 1644 during a period when Winterthur was developing as a regional center. The structure remains a testament to that era and its construction methods.

The castle grounds serve as a gathering space where visitors can explore the well-maintained surroundings and exterior areas. The site is regularly cared for and invites people to spend time within this historic setting.

The site is located near Winterthur's city center and is easily reached on foot or by public transport. Visitors should plan to explore the grounds during fair weather, as most walking takes place outdoors.

The site holds the distinction of being a monument of cantonal importance while also classified as a cultural property of national significance. This dual designation underscores its importance in Swiss architectural heritage.
