history

The estate was first mentioned in 856 and may have belonged to the Rabe von Pappenheim family . Around 1600, Herbold von Sieghard was referred to as the “Erbgesessener zu Menne and under the fiefdom superior property” of the Bishop of Paderborn . This line died out in Menne.

In the last third of the 17th century the estate came to the Barons von Wrede . In 1790 it consisted of "123 acres (= 30 hectares) of land, a manor house, a large economic building and a stable with a barn".

On May 5, 1812, Wilhelm Franz von Hiddessen , mayor of the city and canton of Warburg under Jérôme Bonaparte , acquired the estate with now 211 acres (= 52 ha) of land. The property of his son and heir Wilhelm Otto von Hiddessen was foreclosed in 1847.

In 1850 Robert Fischer (1820–1870), brother of Warburg's mayor Heinrich Fischer , who a year earlier had his sister-in-law Pierine, nee. Charvin, who had married and lived in Paris until then, bought the estate for 20,000 Reichsthaler. The couple had two children before Pierine died in 1853. From 1855 to 1860 Robert had all the buildings on the estate renovated. According to a uniform design, a state mansion was created with a farmyard in front of it, surrounded by two elongated utility buildings. A spacious park was laid out behind and to the side of the manor house. The area of ​​the property was increased to 696 acres (= 174 ha). In 1862 Robert Fischer married again, namely his great-niece Adelaide Fischer (1843-1890). After Robert's death in 1870, his descendants inherited the estate, first his son from his second marriage, Albert Fischer, then Rudolf Fischer. The current owner is Gundel Mithoff-Fischer.

architecture

The well-preserved manor house on the estate, built around 1860, points to French models. It has a high sandstone base with a four-flight flight of stairs in front of it, which leads to the main entrance, which is surrounded by a profiled sandstone wall. The facade, which is otherwise made of bricks, has seven axes with segment-arched windows. It is structured by two-storey pilaster strips made of light bricks, which are connected at the top with a round arch frieze. A hipped roof is located above another, low mezzanine floor , crowned with two symmetrically arranged chimneys.

The elongated farm buildings, which were renewed in 1855, still contain older components from the 18th century. The landscaped park surrounding the manor house on three sides contains old trees and is enclosed by a stone wall.
