History and setting
The castle is a four-winged Renaissance building at the south-western corner of the town's fortification, about 3.6 kilometers long. Duke Ulrich of Württemberg had seven state fortresses built in the 16th century, and Kirchheim was one of them. After the Thirty Years' War it served as a ducal residence for hunting trips and for cure stays in Bad Boll. From the 17th to the 19th century it housed the widows of the dukes of Württemberg, six duchesses in all, including Franziska von Hohenheim and Henriette. In the 20th century it housed a teacher-training seminar, a school and a local history museum. The Staatliche Schlösser und Gärten Baden-Württemberg operates it.
