The Sch nburg line died out with the last heir, the son of Friedrich of Sch nburg. The castle was burned down in 1689 by French soldiers during the Palatinate wars. Sch nburg today Sch nburg castle remained in ruins for 200 years until it was acquired by the German American Rhinelander family who bought the castle from the town of Oberwesel in the late 19th century, and restored it. The town council of Oberwesel acquired the castle back from the Rhinelander family in 1950. Since 1957 the H ttl family have been living at the castle on a long term lease they operate a successful hotel and restaurant there.

  1. Crossing of the Rhine

    31 December 406 is the often repeated date of the crossing of the Rhine by a mixed group of barbarian s that included Vandals , Alans and Suebi . The Rhine crossing transgressed one of the Roman Empire Late Empire s most secure Limes limines or boundaries, a climactic moment in the decline of the Roman Empire that initiated a wave of destruction of Roman cities and the collapse of Roman civic order in northern Gaul , and that occasioned the rise of three usurpers in succession in the province of Britannia hence the crossing of the Rhine is a marker date in the Migrations Period . The full statement of received opinion has been that a mixed band of Vandals, Alans and Suebi crossed the Rhine at Mainz on December 31, 406, and began to ravage Gaul. Several written accounts document the crossing, supplemented by the time line of Prosper of Aquitaine , which gives a firm date of 31 December 406. A letter of Jerome written from Bethlehem , ref Jerome, Epistle 123. ref which gives a long list of the barbarian tribes involved, some of them, like Quadi and Sarmatians , drawn from history or literary tradition, ref Michael Kulikowski, Barbarians in Gaul, Usurpers in Britain Britannia 31 2000 325 345 p 326 calls it a long and fanciful list and surely no more than a display of ethnographic virtuosity. ref mentions Mainz first in a list of the cities devastated by the incursion this is the sole support for the common assumption that the crossing of the unbridged Rhine was effected at Mainz ... on the east bank of the Rhine has been interpreted as a banding of refugees from the Huns ref Peter ...
