      The plant also received the designations Schloss Schönfeldoder Czidelern. It was part of the settlement of the Vogtland and served to secure the surrounding area. It was probably built around 1100. It is believed that in the beginning it consisted of a residential tower, built largely of wood, surrounded by palisades and a moat. Traces in the area in a wood between Bad Elster and Arnsgrün are still present today. The 1236 mentioned Heinrich de Sconinvelt seems to have been the first detectable inhabitant of the plant. Later, the residence belonged to the property of the Neuberg family and was in the late period of the sex starting point of raids. Robber Knight Friedrich von Neuberg fought u. a. from here the imperial city Eger. Numerous legends surround the old castle.

        A bit overgrown at the moment, but the Zeidelweide Thal is always very beautiful.
