history

In the 11th century the property of the Abbey are belonging, the then big was the courtyard in Urbar the monastery mentioned as "suyta Hevinne" was first documented. Later it was given as a fief to noble servants by the Werden abbots . Fiefdom at the beginning of the 14th century was Henrici de Lutzelowe, a member of the von Lüttelnau family, whose ancestral seat was a knight well in what is now the Essen district of Kettwig , of which the Essen Kattenturm still reminds us. After the nearby village, the knights later called themselves "von der Hevene" and expanded the farm into a moated castle .

At the beginning of the 15th century, the property came to the Lords of Vaerst (also known as "von dem Vorste"), who owned the Kallenberg manor near Kirchende. After the Knights of Vishusen temporarily sat on the estate, it first came to the "vom Holte" and from 1527 to the Knights of Elverfeld, who held the fief until 1627. In 1629 another member of the von Vaerst family was enfeoffed: Conrad von Vaerst zum Callenberg. His descendant, Baron Ludolf Bernhard von Vaerst, sold Haus Heven on March 25, 1747 for 46,800  Reichstaler to Wilhelm Ludolf von Boenen zu Berge .

After it was briefly owned by the Barons von der Recke , it came to the Counts of Westerholt -Gysenberg through members of the Boenen family .

A list of the property belonging to the estate from 1816 describes the property's house as a building that was “moderately listed” and “hardly reminded of the old knight's seat.” The moat that surrounded the estate was at that time completely muddy.
