Schloss Schöneck
Boppard, Germany, Germany
Schloss Schöneck, located near Boppard in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany, was constructed around 1200 by imperial ministerialis Conrad of Boppard as a strategic imperial castle overlooking the Rhine Valley.
Its descendants, adopting the name Lords of Schöneck, resided there until 1508 as a Ganerbenburg shared among family lines, administering the Gallscheider Gericht district while enduring conflicts like the 1331–1336 Eltz Feud against Trier's Archbishop Baldwin and occupation in the 1488 Beilstein War.
Becoming a Trier fief, it passed through families like the Eltz until 1646, gained Baroque wings in the mid-17th century under the Sötern foundation, and after 1805 private ownership—including a brief milk spa in 1846–1848—passed to artist Wilhelm Steinhausen in 1912 and now a family foundation since 1922.
