The first evidence of the house Rott, a castle with extensive Wall- and grave system that dates back to 1289. On August 28, 1418 Cologne troops destroyed the castle of the Knights seat of the Lords of Deutz-Rott. After this event, probably only the outer bailey (administrator's house) was managed, which can still be viewed today as a mansion. Remains of the residential tower and the fortifications still exist.
