Forgotten History
Burg Wildeck, Abstatt
Abstatt, Germany
Wildeck Castle, also known as Wildeck Castle, is a hilltop castle in Abstatt in the Heilbronn district in Baden-Württemberg. The castle was probably built in the High Middle Ages by the Lords of Heinriet and came to Ludwig in 1492, the progenitor of the third line of Counts of Löwenstein, who were proven to have been growing wine there as early as the 16th century. In 1933 the castle and surrounding vineyards came to the Württemberg state. Since 1940, the castle, which has been rebuilt many times, has been a test farm for the wine-growing school in Weinsberg, which bred the Samrot and Dornfelder varieties there.
