history
The family of ministers of the same name von Kannewurf was first mentioned in 1221, which had its headquarters here until 1350. Originally at the site of the castle was a Wasserburg . With the castle, the gentlemen protected and controlled the road leading from Erfurt via Weißensee and Sangerhausen to Magdeburg. The street crossed the Wipper at Kindelbrück. Albert von Kannawurf, mentioned in 1221, could have been the builder of the castle.
In 1564 Georg II. Vitzthum von Eckstedt built the renaissance castle Kannawurf on the estate, which has been in the family since 1539; there were also three other manors in the village. Inscriptions on doors and windows date between 1563 and 1565. The preserved bell tower from 1586 is decorated with the family coat of arms. The north wing housed the state rooms, including a large hall; the south wing was reserved for economic and residential functions, u. a. the castle kitchen was located there. The dungeon, bell tower, a wooden gallery from the 16th century and imposing cellars complete the ensemble. After George's death in 1570, his five sons received the castle. Johann Friedrich I. Vitzthum von Eckstedt leased the property in 1661 because he was in debt due to the Thirty Years War.
In 1685 the von Bose family bought the property. In a renovation phase in the 18th century under the aegis of Bose, changes were made to the room layout and the roof landscape. In 1726 the property went to the von Helmholt, later to other owners, in 1839 to the princes of Schwarzburg-Sondershausen .
Kannawurf belonged to the Saxon Electoral Office of Sachsenburg until 1815 . The decisions of the Congress of Vienna led to Prussia and in 1816 the county Eckartsberga in the administrative district of Merseburg of the Province of Saxony assigned to which it belonged until the 1944th
During the Second World War , numerous men and women from Poland and the Ukraine had to do forced labor on the manor and the state domain.
On January 1, 2019, the Kannawurf municipality was merged with Frömmstedt , Bilzingsleben and Kindelbrück to form the new rural municipality of Kindelbrück. Before that she belonged to the administrative community Kindelbrück .
