In 1565 the dynasty von der Schulenburg inherited the castle. Between 1601 and 1606 a renaissance castle was built at the site under the reign of Lewin von der Schulenburg. Gebhart von Alvensleben purchased Schochwitz castel in 1783 and it remained in that family's possession. The last owner was Ludolf-Hermann von Alvensleben.
