Urkundlich werden Altschönegg 1237 und Neuschönegg (Burg) 1219 erstmals genannt. Die Burg Altschönegg war Sitz eines der bedeutendsten Reichsministerialgeschlechter in Bayerisch-Schwaben (Romani regni ministerialis). Seit 1355 befand sich die Herrschaft Schönegg in den Händen des Hochstifts Augsburg, das bis 1803 Ortsherr blieb. Danach ging die Landeshoheit auf das Kurfürstentum Bayern über. Fürst Anselm Maria Fugger von Babenhausen erwarb 1809 den 30 m hohen Bergfried, den letzten Überrest der Burg, der mehrfach erstürmt, im Bauernkrieg vom Roten Fähnlein verwüstet worden war. Er ließ die Ruine instandsetzen und machte das Bauwerk als Aussichtsturm (sog. Römerturm) der Öffentlichkeit zugänglich. In der Ortsmitte ausgeschildert!
