The hill on which the castle is built, was already inhabited in the Neolithic period.
The castle itself was built in the 12th century.
The lords of Frauenberg have lived in the castle since the 13th century.
When Heinrich von Frauenberg died, the castle became the property of the Habsburgs in 1314, who used it as a guard post against the Swiss Confederates who were camped on St. Luzisteig.
Due to the siege in the Swabian War of 1499, the Roman German Emperor Maximilian I took security measures to protect the castle.
The drawbridge was destroyed in a storm in 1537.
Until the 18th century it was inhabited.
After that it fell into ruin and was rebuilt between 1905 and 1912.
The Castle Gutenberg is located in Balzers Lichtenstein.
