Schloss Schönborn, Renaissance castle in Geisenheim, Germany
The three-story Schloss Schönborn stands within enclosed vineyards, featuring a slate-covered gable roof and a polygonal stair tower at its center.
The castle originated in 1550 as Stockheimer Hof before Philip Erwein von Schönborn acquired it in 1652 following peace negotiations of the Westphalian Treaty.
The castle displays architectural elements from both late Gothic and Renaissance periods, including decorated wooden panels and stone carvings throughout its halls.
The Diocese of Limburg maintains the castle for special events, celebrations, and business gatherings, with arrangements made through local event planning services.
Small towers with needle roofs mark each corner of the second story, added during the 1875 renovation by Frankfurt architect Heinrich Theodor Schmidt.
