history

The country house was built from 1879 to 1880 according to a design by Cologne architect August Carl Lange in the Cologne neo-Gothic style as a summer apartment for the Cologne district judge and member of the Reichstag, Eugen von Kesseler . With the Marienburg, the client wanted to commemorate the headquarters of the Teutonic Knights Order of the same name in West Prussia.
