From 1728, the Palm'sche Schloss was the residence of the Barons von Palm. The castle dates back to a manor house built around 1595, which was rebuilt and expanded several times. The castle complex included outbuildings, stables, and kitchen gardens, as well as the well from 1735. Since 1990, the district town hall of the Mühlhausen district has been established here.

The ruin with the three wooden gates and the three vaults behind them, located at the foot of the Engelburg, was built as a tithe barn in 1732. The building, called "Fruchtkasten", served, among other things, as a receiving point for in-kind contributions. During the Second World War, women and men from Mühlhausen built a bunker system into the mountain from the cellar rooms for protection against air raids.

The Freienstein belonged to the area „Freiberg" and was first mentioned in documents around 700. The historical connections regarding field names and land rights show that there was a - albeit small - castle here. A hint can be found in the „Geistlichen Lagerbuch von 1586". In a legal dispute around 1501, there is mention of a Neuhausen zu Freyenstein". The „Freiberg" with approx. 170 ha area belonged to the district of Münster. In 1951, during the construction of Stuttgart-Rot, 34.4 ha of the Zuffenhausen district were added. During the settlement of Stuttgart-Freiberg, in 1963, a further 58.3 ha were reassigned to Mühlhausen and 114 1.6 ha to Zuffenhausen.

From the Bärenwiese, a straight avenue, the Königsallee, leads up to the "green drawer", a place that Duke Ludwig had created in 1707 as a "Point de Vue", and which his successor Carl Alexander is also said to have used to spend the night in a tent and listen to the song of the nightingales.

The Protestant St. John's Church was built in 1955 by the Stuttgart architect Prof. H. Seytter. With 900 seats, it is the largest church building erected in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Württemberg after World War II. In 2015, due to declining membership, an architectural competition was held for the mixed-use development of the building. Nike Fiedler won first prize with a "house-within-a-house" concept that incorporated the community center into the rear of the church, while preserving the sanctuary at the chancel. Following the demolition of the community center attached to the church between 2017 and 2020, the church interior was gutted, and the new community center was installed within the nave. In 2017, the church interior was gutted, and the new community center was constructed within the nave. The stained-glass windows in the chancel (depicting the Second Coming, scenes from the Book of Revelation and the Gospel of John) and above the gallery (depicting scenes from the Song of Songs) were preserved. These were created by W.-Dieter Kohler, and the large oak crucifix behind the altar was sculpted by Ulrich Henn. The altar carpet was hand-knotted by women from the congregation, based on a design by the Stuttgart Parament Workshop. The altar cross came from the demolished Beate Paulus Parish Hall.
