Schloss Schomberg, Classicist castle in Gemmingen, Germany

Schloss Schomberg stands with a square floor plan on a high plinth, featuring two and a half stories and seven axial windows on its east facade.

The construction took place between 1820 and 1826 under the direction of Karl August Schwarz for Count Hans Christoph von Degenfeld-Schonburg.

The interior features a circular gallery with a coffered dome, accessed by a central staircase illuminated through a glass dome using 19th-century techniques.

The castle remains a private residence of the Degenfeld family and does not offer public access to its interior spaces or grounds.

The castle overlooks specific sight lines toward Burg Steinsberg in the north and the Eppingen parish church of Our Lady in the south.
