A predecessor of the castle was built in 1452. Around 1577-1586, a new building was constructed for Archduke Ferdinand II of Tyrol by the Italian architect Alberto Lucchese. Several town houses had to be bought for this. The names of the sellers have been preserved: Kaspar Kündig, Hans Gering and Jakob Böringer. The construction of the castle cost a total of 132,000 guilders. The neighboring lords asked the Innsbruck court chamber for free building materials "in honor of His Serene Highness". All the construction workers' invoices have been preserved. The castle complex forms a monumental focal point in the urban structure in the southwest corner of the city, which is complemented in the northwest by another dominant accent in the form of the pre-baroque complex of the former Franciscan monastery and its church.

From 1609 to 1618, the city became the residence of Margrave Karl von Burgau, a strict Catholic and son of Ferdinand II in Tyrol, governor of Upper Austria. Karl and his wife Sybille had no children, so Günzburg fell back to the main Habsburg line. Both were buried in the Capuchin monastery founded by Karl in 1616. Severely damaged in a fire in 1703, the castle was rebuilt in the Baroque style by the master builder Valerian Brenner. In 1769/70, the castle was renovated by Joseph Dossenberger the Younger.
