The three-storey hipped roof building was owned by various Franconian noble families in the Middle Ages and Early Modern Period.

After ten years of ownership by the House of Wildenstein, the castle was sold to the Künsbergs in 1632, who, in the eighteenth century, added the upper floor, raised the staircase and built a roof terrace with a parapet.

According to an old legend, a black mare also lives here, who waits for people to go past the house in the darkness, sits on their back and oppresses them.

In the Nazi era, a NSDAP Gauführer school was established here in 1935, whose members were probably involved in the desecration of the Jewish Cemetery in Ermreuth which had been opened in 1711.
