Schloss Schöneck

Schloss Schöneck is a castle which stands on a rock outcrop in the Ehrbach Gorge in the borough of Boppard in the Hunsrück mountains of Germany.

The family had several lines, who lived jointly at the castle (making it a so-called Ganerbenburg).

In the Eltz Feud of 1331–1336, the castle was part of the protection and defence league of rebel knights against the Archbishop of Trier and Elector Baldwin of Luxembourg.

From 1508 onwards, the castle changed hands several times, but remained a Trier fief-castle.

Medieval structures include the cellars and supporting walls, towers and part of the enceinte.
