In the middle of downtown Usingen is Usingen's stately home, the Usinger Schloss.
The home's exact origins have yet to be fully explained.
It is assumed that it was built in the 14th century as a castle under Johann I of Nassau-Weilburg.
Prince Walrad had a new stately home built on the castle's site in 1660–1663.
The architect Friedrich Joachim Stengel (1694–1787) remodelled the Usinger Schloss into a Baroque residence between 1733 and 1738 as instructed by Princess Charlotte Amalie, Prince Wilhelm Heinrich I's widow.
In 1873, a great fire destroyed the Schloss, which was afterwards built anew.

 Today it is used as a Gymnasium (Christian-Wirth-Schule).
Bordering right on the Schloss is the Usinger Schlossgarten, the stately home garden.
