Hohenneuffen Castle, Medieval castle in Neuffen, Germany

The castle stands at 743 meters above sea level on a Jurassic rock formation, featuring extensive stone fortifications and defensive structures throughout its grounds.

Built between 1100 and 1120 by Mangold von Sulmetingen, the castle passed through multiple noble families before becoming property of the Counts of Württemberg in 1301.

The name Neuffen originates from proto-Celtic word 'nobos' meaning holy or sacred, indicating the mountain's religious importance dating back over two millennia.

The castle operates with different schedules: Sunday through Tuesday from 9:00 to 19:00, while Wednesday through Saturday extends until 22:00 for evening visits.

The Three-States-Conference of 1948 took place at Hohenneuffen, leading to negotiations that formed the modern state of Baden-Württemberg during Allied occupation.
