Forgotten History
Burg Streichenberg
Gemmingen, Germany
Streichenberg Castle is a spur castle near Stebbach, an incorporated district of Gemmingen in the Heilbronn district in Baden-Württemberg. The Spornburg, which was probably built in the 13th century in the district of Zimmern by the Lords of Gemmingen, was probably partially destroyed during the Thirty Years' War or at the latest in the War of the Palatinate Succession. Around 1820, the Counts of Degenfeld built the nearby Schomberg Castle as their new seat of power, after which the castle was only used as a manor until the 1960s and was rebuilt several times. Since then there have been various restoration efforts, but so far they have only resulted in securing and renovating part of the facility, which was partly used for residential and commercial purposes.
