The current building, a solid construction with corner blocks and a plastered half-timbered gable , essentially dates from 1739, but is essentially much older. An old arched cellar entrance on the east side is remarkable. Immediately in front of the barn ran the Glems, which was dammed here with a weir to supply the castle mill . After the abolition of the tithe in kind (1808), the tithe barn was converted into a farmhouse with a large barn. Since 2009 the building has been used as a purely residential building.
