A remnant of the place still existed in 1517, when the Carmelite monastery Spangenberg sold the monastery Haydau its rights to the Schonwalde with house, yard, fields, meadows and wood. At the latest in 1540 the place in the Spangenberger Salbuch was already called desolate and only the church was still standing. It is recorded as Schonewaltzkirch in the Mercator map of Hesse from 1592. Parts of the foundation walls were uncovered by Eubacher confirmands and are still visible today.
