The Gothic fortress probably originated in the 13th century, commissioned by one of the Kuttenberg patricians. It had a square layout with the corners facing the cardinal points and was surrounded by walls, a moat and a rampart. From the northeast, the entrance to the fortress was secured by a bridge and a double gate protected by the main tower.
Inside the fortress, a single-story palace ran adjacent to the wall, with a smaller tower and a single-story outbuilding.
Today, a castle stands on this site, which retains only parts of the perimeter masonry, part of the gate portal and the stone seats on the ground floor of the former tower, as a reminder of the fortress.
