• From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
• Schönborn appeared first in the County of Katzenelnbogen in 1373 when Gilbrecht of Schönborn, a vassal, served Eberhard V of Katzenelnbogen. Later it was a German statelet ruled by the Schönborn family located in Franconia and areas at the Main River in Germany, located to the south of Bamberg and to the southeast of Würzburg. Schönborn emerged as a Lordship in the 14th Century. It was raised to a Barony in 1663 and to a County in 1701. In 1717, it was partitioned into Schönborn-Heusenstamm (at Heusenstamm) and Schönborn-Wiesentheid (at Wiesentheid).

Schönborn-Wiesentheid was a partition of Schönborn, and inherited the other line of Schönborn-Heusenstamm in 1801. Schönborn-Wiesentheid was mediatised to Bavaria in 1806. ===These counts bear the prefix, Illustrious Highness.===
