When the family died out in 1338, their estates in the region were inherited by the Counts of Werdenberg-Sargans.

According to the chronicler Aegidius Tschudi the castle was owned by the Counts in the 15th century and was destroyed in 1451 during a war between the residents of the Schams valley and Werdenberg-Sargans.

[2] The castle is located in heavy brush on top of Hasensprung hill.

On the eastern end of the site the collapsed ruins of a four-story tower have been mostly overgrown.

The western end of the site has the only part of the castle still standing, the northern corner of another tower with three windows.
