history

On the site of the present manor was in the year 750 already Sorbian Wallenburg , the 839 documented by the conquest by the Saxons was mentioned. From 1370 to the middle of the 16th century, the plant was the headquarters of the von Kositz family . After the plague of 1636 and pillage by Swedish troops in the Thirty Years' War , the village and the manor were desolate . In 1877 the wall of the castle was demolished, which later enabled the construction of the east wing of the building. Today's building, known as the castle, was built on behalf of Hubert Freiherr von dem Bussche-Lohe and his wife Jeannette von Wuthenau in 1891. The west wing was built in 1937, as was the English landscape park . Until the foreclosure sale in 1945, it remained in the family ownership of von dem Bussche. In recent years the manor has been renovated and apartments are to be built.

In the landscape park there is still a beech tree with a trunk diameter of six meters and a crown of 38 meters, making it one of the thickest beeches in Germany. Wall remains of up to five meters high have been preserved from the Wallburg.
