View of Horneck Castle.

The castle Horneck was a castle of the Teutonic Order in Gundelsheim am Neckar in the neighborhood of the Neckarburgen Ehrenberg, Guttenberg and Hornberg. Together with the castle Guttenberg castle Horneck dominated the so-called German level and the connecting routes between Heilbronn and Heidelberg. Today, the palace complex serves as the home of the Transylvanian Transylvanian Saxons.

Dasd Highlight should not be called "Schloss Horneck", but "Blick auf Schloss Horneck"
The castle is located on the other side of the Neckar and about 2-3km away :-)

Horneck Castle was a castle of the Teutonic Order in Gundelsheim am Neckar in the vicinity of the Neckar castles of Ehrenberg, Guttenberg and Hornberg. Together with Guttenberg Castle, Horneck Castle dominated the so-called German Plain and the connecting routes between Heilbronn and Heidelberg. Today the palace complex serves as the home of the Transylvanian Saxons.
The origins of Horneck Castle are obscure. However, in 1238 a Ludovicus de Horneck was mentioned in a document. Therefore, it is cautiously assumed that the lords of Horneck could be the founders and builders of the castle. The time is assumed to be around 1200 for this. Around 1250 the owner of the castle, Konrad von Horneck, gave the castle and his part of Gundelsheim to the Teutonic Order and joined the Teutonic Order together with his two sons. For this, Konrad von Horneck became Commander of the newly created Coming Horneck. The keep, which is still preserved today, is the only part of the building that is said to date from the time when the castle was founded.
