Schloss Schöckingen stands in Ditzingen (Landkreis Ludwigsburg), in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. The building is a listed Baudenkmal. No visits are on record for this building.

Schloss Schöckingen sits in the old village centre of Schöckingen, a district of Ditzingen, bringing together several building phases from the 15th to the 18th century. The privately owned complex pairs the Neues Schloss, arranged around a polygonal courtyard still bordered by a moat, with the Hinteres Schloss built in 1754 for the von Gaisberg-Schöckingen family. Highlights include the late Gothic gatehouse dated 1430, bearing the coat of arms of Hans von Nippenburg, and a landscaped park with small ponds. Access remains occasional, since the buildings now serve as a private residence and event venue.
