Hofgut Imsbach location	Imsbach estate	The Hofgut has existed since the High Middle Ages and was expanded in the 17th and 18th centuries. The current courtyard house dates back to the reconstruction around 1715, which was carried out by the Lorraine bailiff Gaspard Le Payenbautes. In 1793 it was confiscated by the Napoleonic troops. The estate owes its current appearance to the French equestrian colonel Charles Louis Narcisse Lapointe, to whom Napoleon Bonaparte donated the property in 1812 for his military services. Lapointe built a new, castle-like house around 1810 and created a landscaped park. From 1953 to 1965 the estate was used as a penal institution.
