Although its existence is attested, the available sources do not specify its construction period or detailed history.

In Burgundy-Franche-Comté, castles have often played a central role in the social and economic organization of the territories. They served as seigneurial residences, defence places or symbols of power. In Palinges, as in other rural communities, these buildings could also structure local life, particularly around the dominant agricultural and artisanal activities.
