The current Burghaus from 1686 rises on the foundations of a predecessor built by the Lords of Schonenberg.
The year of construction was at the latest 1539. From this year comes a "gate closure arch" with the coat of arms of Schöneberg-Kämmerer von Worms, called Dalberg, which is located in the Schlossparkmuseum Bad Kreuznach. It is a two-story rubble stone building with a half-hipped roof. Presumably, the castle (better known as Burghaus) was destroyed during the turmoil of the Thirty Years' War.
The Burghaus presumably served as a hunting lodge and court seat during the Ingelheim period. The former castle district is still recognizable today and can be spatially reconstructed with the help of a site plan. It indicates that the castle district was surrounded by a moat and a ring wall. The draw well is no longer accessible today. The remains of the ring wall located to the southwest were preserved for a long time, and the rest of the former gate can still be seen today.
Behind the former tithe barn is an old cellar, which presumably served, like the barn, for the storage of taxes arising from the tithe right.
