History and architecture

The estate was first mentioned in a document in 1231. The homestead at the end of an avenue in a small wood was originally fenced . The half-timbered system with silted brick infills consists of the residential and farm buildings , the horse stable and the barns. The residential and farm building is marked with 1748. The long hall house with double cantilevered gable is equipped with an after-work bell. In the Napoleonic era, the complex was converted into a Mairie . According to the stipulations, multi-wing mansions were added to the living area, with two escapes on the eaves . At the same time, the forecourt was designed as a courtyard of honor. A representative staircase and a three-sided gallery were installed. The smaller barn under a half-hip roof with a protruding gable is probably an older courtyard house. It is marked 1713. The larger barn was built in the first half of the 18th century, the horse stable is marked 1750.
