The clearing site was first mentioned in 1441 as Kiligesrode. In 1719 the estate was sold by Countess Anna Elisabeth von Gleichen and Hatzfeld and Count Franziskus Lotharius to Hans Georg Becker and his brother Hans Heinrich Becker. In 1923 Elise Becker was the owner of the 145.5 hectare manor. This was expropriated in 1945 without compensation.
From the beginning of the 19th century the place was part of the Grand Duchy of Saxony-Weimar-Eisenach , from 1920 of the Free State of Thuringia. It was occupied by US troops in April 1945 and by the Red Army from July 1945 and thus part of the Soviet zone of occupation and the new state of Thuringia, from 1949 the German Democratic Republic , from 1952 in the Erfurt district and since 1990 the place has been part of the new founded federal state, the Free State of Thuringia.
