Inzlingen, a picturesque moated castle, was for a long time owned by the Basel family Reich von Reichenstein. In 1394 this family received the high jurisdiction in the village as a fief. In 1511 the castle is called. At that time, Hans von Rineck sold it to Dr. Ing. Peter Wölflin in Basel, who was married to Anna von Reichenstein. In 1530 Jakob von Reichenstein called himself the "ruler of the villages of Inzlingen"; he must have heard the castle too. He probably began the expansion, the Hans Georg von Reichenstein completed in 1563. In 1819 the family of Reichenstein had to sell Inzlingen. In 1969, the community acquired the castle and built it exemplary as a city hall. The oldest part of the plant is probably the western half of the northwest wing including the tower. Around 1563 the training took place to the fourth with almost all remaining buildings. The castle located in a pond, decorated with Baroque ornamental painting, can be reached via a bridge. The interior houses in the west corner the Nepomuk hall (larger council chamber) in rococo forms with French period furniture. The adjoining Vogtssaal (small council chamber) shows forms of the 16th century (beamed ceiling with a beautiful supporting pillar, access to the tower). From the courtyard northeast of the current restaurant with vestibule (frescoes from the mid-18th century, renewed), Reichensteiner Hall (late Gothic beam ceiling from 1563 and sandstone pillar from 1566) and heraldic hall. On the upper floor, the north-east corner is occupied by the Knight's Hall ("Hall of the Four Seasons"). It has a patterned parquet floor (mid-18th century), a stucco ceiling with reliefs of 4 Reichenstein castles and the 4 seasons, a Rococo faience stove, probably from Strasbourg, as well as Supraporten with landscapes. The Blue Salon now serves as a mayor's room. (Text: excerpt German Castle Association e.V. Braubach - Dr. W. Avenarius)
