The history of Schloss Winnenden (historically mostly called Schloss Winnental) ranges from a medieval knight's seat to a ducal residence and finally to one of the oldest psychiatric clinics in Germany. In 1288, Berthold von Neuffen donated the estates in Winnenden to the Teutonic Order. Between 1684 and 1688, the architect Matthias Weiß had the castle fundamentally redesigned. This resulted in the three-story main building (Corps de Logis) as well as a cavalier building. Today, the Klinikum Schloß Winnenden (Center for Psychiatry) is located in the buildings and the extensive park. It functions as a modern specialist hospital for psychiatry and psychotherapy, continuing the site's nearly 200-year medical tradition to this day.

The medieval Diebsturm (formerly Fangturm) is located at the southwestern corner of the former six-meter-high city wall. It once served as a dungeon for serious criminals who faced the death penalty under high jurisdiction. In front of it is a sculpture created by the artist Martin Kirstein from epoxy resin. It depicts a mischievous thief carrying away a sack full of wine bottles. In the heat of the moment, some bottles have broken – as the wine leaks from the leaking sack, he winks secretly in the direction of the Diebsturm.

The Schwaikheimer Torturm is the most striking historical landmark of the town of Winnenden and, together with the medieval town fortifications, formed the main entrance to the old town. Its stone passageway – the Schwaikheimer Tor – is considered, along with the remaining parts of the town wall, to be the oldest preserved building structure in Winnenden. The tower was probably built in the second half of the 13th century during the first comprehensive town wall construction. The massive stone ground floor and the stair tower formed the foundation for the defense of the town.
