It was probably built around 1100, its owners initially being either the first dukes of Teck, who were a side line of the House of Zähringen, or even the dukes of Zähringen, themselves. The Willenburg was built to cater for travellers. Road tolls were raised here as the old transport route over to Rottweil was monitored here.
