Einersheim Castle

After Schenk Vollrath von Limpurg abandoned Speckfeld Castle, he built a new residence for himself in the village in 1685, a half-timbered building on the market square.
Through Amalie, the daughter of the last Schenk Georg Eberhard, the castle came into the possession of the Counts of Rechteren. In 1859, under Count Friedrich Ludwig von Rechteren-Limpurg-Speckfeld, the two-story extension was built in Neo-Gothic style with a wide front facing the street. The coats of arms of the builder and his wife Luitgard Countess von Erbach-Fürstenau are preserved above the entrance portal.
In 1969, Nikolaus Knauf acquired it from the heirs of Countess Adolphine von Rechteren-Limpurg-Speckfeld.
