Schloss Bergdietikon

Burg Kindhausen Bergdietikon

Because there are no reliable written springs about the ruins, a lot remains unsettled. Builders were presumably Messrs. von Schönenwerd, porters of the Counts of Kyburg and later the Habsburg.  On the occasion of an excavation in 1936 one found ceramic shards and a lances-shaped arrow iron. These findings allow to close on a construction by the end of 12-th century. At the middle of 13-th century the castle fell victim to a fire and was given up. Short time later the economy building was also given up, and both buildings disintegrated.
