The castle was built between 1883 and 1885 by the pencil manufacturer Lothar von Faber (1817-1896) and his wife Ottilie. The castle was supposed to serve as a retirement home for Lothar von Faber, who had transformed his father's pencil factory, acquired in 1839, into a world-famous large-scale enterprise. In 1893, the early death of his only son forced the then 76-year-old to return to the company headquarters in Stein. In 1906 Schwarzenbrucker Schloss lost its significance with the completion of the new Faber Castle in Stein; today it is used by Arbeiterwohlfahrt as a retirement and nursing home. The Arbeiterwohlfahrt, Kreisverband Nürnberger Land e.V. is the bearer of the senior citizen facility "Faberschloß". The nursing building erected in 1972 next to the "Faberschloss" was completely refurbished from 1998-2003.
