Burg Winterstetten is a ruined hilltop castle standing at 607 metres above the hamlet of Winterstettenstadt, part of the municipality of Ingoldingen in the Landkreis Biberach, Baden-Württemberg. Built originally by the lords of Winterstetten, it later passed to figures close to the imperial court before falling to the House of Habsburg and then to the Truchsess von Waldburg family. Already decaying by the 15th century, it was torn down in 1759, leaving only fragments of the keep, part of the ring wall and the defensive ditch that once cut off the ridge.
