history

Schomburg was first mentioned in 1229 as Scowenburc .

Schomburg Manor

The Schomburg rule was a manor with lower jurisdiction , which was under the Count of Montfort . The manor Schomburg was part of the knight canton of Hegau-Allgäu-Bodensee . The knight seat was Alt-Schomburg Castle . Its newer sister castle was expanded in 1754 by the Counts of Montfort to become Schomburg Castle . In the course of bankruptcy proceedings, the Counts of Montfort had to cede their property, including the Schomburg rulership, to the House of Habsburg in 1779 . With the Peace of Pressburg in 1805 these goods fell to Bavaria , which passed them on to Württemberg under Napoleon Bonaparte in 1810 .
