Today the plant is a forester's house of the Barons von Fürstenberg. The Hüster Hof, the Wulfs Hof, the Klauke Hof and the Sinn'sche Hof were just as old. With this was enfeoffed in the middle of the 13th century by the Cologne Elector Dietrich von Ketteleler (an ancestor of the Courland dukes ).

The Bienstein court chapel was built in 1885 . The inauguration took place in 1886 by Pastor Schmidt. In 1920 the chapel was used for Sunday masses, baptisms and weddings.
