history

The estate stands on the walls of an old moated castle and was first mentioned in a document in 1278. Five noble families are recorded as owners between 1543 and 1817 . Through the marriage of Sophia Charlotte Klenke von Renckhausen with Benjamin von Mentzingen (1648–1723), Hofmeister and Privy Councilor in Stuttgart, it came into the possession of the Lords of Mentzingen from Baden for a time . In 1817 the estate was acquired by the Stille family from Lübbecke, who sold it around 1960.

The current structure was created in the 18th century . Originally built in half-timbered construction, the estate was converted into a villa-like mansion in the neo-renaissance style in 1896 .

Todays use

Small stable

The estate has been in the family for more than a hundred years. It has been extensively renovated in recent years and is still used for agriculture together with the Crollage and Hudenbeck estates .

In addition to the agricultural use, you can get civil weddings in the rooms and use the festive rooms for parties.

The "café in the small stall" was often used as a starting point for bike tours in the large peat bog or on the Mittelland Canal, but is now closed. Numerous mills on the Westphalian Mühlenstrasse are in the immediate vicinity.

In 2004, the federal decision on performance plowing with participants from all over Germany took place here.
