The last family were the von Chevron who were the bailiffs of Sion and Sierre.

In the mid-16th century the bishop of Sion bought the castle from the von Chevron family.

In 1856, an attempt to demolish the castle to provide stone for a new church was unsuccessful.

However, in the 1930s the hill below the castle was terraced for a vineyard.
