The owners were the lords of Bruchhausen, who died out in 1450, as Corveyer feudal takers, from whom the estate came to von Mense gen. Von Bruchhausen around 1450 and from 1524/1537 to the Kanne von Lügde through an heir daughter. In 1884 the barons Wolff-Metternich bought the property and live in it to this day.
