Weinsberg, Medieval castle town in Heilbronn, Germany.

The town stands at 219 meters elevation, with the Weibertreu Castle ruins visible on a hill overlooking rows of traditional German buildings.

During the 1140 siege, King Conrad III permitted the women to leave with their possessions, leading them to carry their husbands on their shoulders.

The Weinsberger Tal valley contains extensive vineyards producing wines, with a dedicated viticulture school advancing regional winemaking education and practices.

The town connects to major transport routes through the A6 and A81 motorways, while the Hohenlohebahn railway provides regional transportation services.

In the 19th century, Weinsberg transformed into a gathering place for German intellectuals, earning the designation as the Swabian Weimar.
