history
Schottenstein was first mentioned as a stone in 1126. The name of the noble family von Schott is first recorded for 1239. The von Schott split into several lines, each with a residence in Schottenstein.
A chapel of St. Pankratius is mentioned for 1354, an independent parish for 1358. In the 16th century the von Lichtenstein rulers took over the village, of which there are still tombstones in the church. In 1626 there were three palace complexes, the Middle Palace to the south of the church, the Lower Palace to the west, of which there are still foundations, and the Upper Palace, which can still be seen as a castle stables. The Lower and Upper Castle and large parts of the village were destroyed in the Thirty Years' War in 1634 . The Middle Castle belonged to Max Schott von Schottenstein until 1917 and passed through an inheritance to the current owner, Freiherren Löffelholz von Kolberg .

Two farms belonged to those of Lichtenstein - Lahm and four farms to those of Hendrich. Four houses and the blacksmith's shop were owned by the community.

Population development

Village structure
The townscape of Schottenstein is determined by its pronounced hillside location. Undeveloped hillside areas are mostly planted with orchards .
The center of the village, the upper village, lies on the edge of the slope. The locks are or were there. The houses along the street are arranged at the gable end. Most of the buildings with special functions, such as the church, the upper school and the former Würzburg courtyard house, are located downhill in the upper village.
The most common historical type of house is the one-storey stable house, often in half-timbered houses, with a gable roof or half-hipped roof , which is typical for smallholders and farmers-craftsmen in Itzgrund. The half-timbered houses, often with gable ends, are often clad with slate. Many courtyards have a walnut tree as a courtyard tree .
church
The Evangelical Lutheran parish church of St. Pankratius is a hall church , the nave of which was built in 1703 and structurally changed in 1842. The late Gothic west tower is dated to the year 1499 and in 1603 received a high pointed spire with four corner turrets. Of the furnishings, the colorful pulpit from the 18th century and the coffered ceiling are worth mentioning. Special features are two sculptures on the turn, a knight with a standard and coat of arms in full armor and a bull-like animal with a human head with a face above it.
