Culture and sights
Buildings
The Schenkenstein Castle is an old ministerial seat, consisting of a stately proportioned main building, a quarry stone building with corner blocks, in the core a medieval tower hill castle, around 1550 the old tower hill castle was built over with the new castle and expanded to its present size. A stepped gable from the Renaissance period (around 1550) is still preserved today. Above the archway is the coat of arms of the Schenkenstein taverns . Today the castle is partly a tenement house and lies within the largely filled moat complex.
In 1468, Hans von Seckendorff gave Margrave Albrecht von Ansbach his part of Röckingen as a fiefdom and sold it to Hans von Schenkenstein as a margravial fief. The last representative of this family built the castle that is still standing together with his stepbrother Georg von Gundelsheim . The last Schenkenstein murdered his wife Cäcilie von Rechenberg in his castle in 1572.
As a punishment, his fiefs were withdrawn from him by Margrave Georg Friedrich and he was sentenced to life in prison. The goods returned to Georg Wilhelm von Gundelsheim. He sold them in 1584 to the Margraves of Ansbach, who regularly stayed in Röckingen. During this time, the prince's estate was established in the Laurentius Church in Röckingen. In 1793 the castle came into private hands. It later became the property of the brewery owner Gutmann. After the First World War, the rooms were used as an office for the lime works. It then changed hands several times.
