history
The first previous building of Dransdorfer Burg was probably built around 1139, when a service man named Cuno von Travinstorp from the Electorate of Cologne was mentioned in a document. In 1224 there was a knight named Lambertus de Draynstorp. In the following centuries, the castle changed hands several times, so it belonged to the Bonn aldermen Albrecht von Zweiffel in 1482 and, at the latest, to the von Lyskirchen family from Cologne in 1664 . In 1575 the 30 m² castle chapel (Antoniuskapelle) was first mentioned. The Junkersdorf family took over the castle in the late 17th century. During the Palatinate War of Succession , the French burned Dransdorf Castle in 1695. By marrying Agatha von Junkersdorf in 1716 the castle became the property of Franz von Grootes . Von Groote rebuilt the castle, which was burned down at the beginning of the 18th century - this time probably by lightning - completely new from bricks and with a hipped roof .
The castle remained in the possession of the von Groote family until 1860, from which the mayor of Cologne, Heinrich Josef von Groote, came from. In 1860, Carl von Groote died without an heir, the castle left private property for the first time and went to the Cologne high school and foundation fund , which leased it. Finally, in 1954, the city of Bonn bought the castle with an area of 400 acres . After completion of a renovation, the branch of the city music school was opened there on September 27, 1973.
