history

The complex of the manor Wengelsdorf was built in the Middle Ages. The feudal book of Friedrich des Stengen from 1350 lists scattered holdings in Wengelsdorf for the noble families von Haldeck, von Holleben, von Kirchdorf, von Schönberg and Spiegel. In 1486, Duke Albrecht of Saxony enfeoffed representatives of the von Wölkau family with half of the Sattelhof zu Wengelsdorf. In 1523 this fiefdom is defined as half the knight's seat in Wengelsdorf with inheritance jurisdiction.

In 1596, Hermann von Biesenroth acquired the fiefdom from which the early modern manor developed. About the marriage of his descendant Susanna Albertina von Bünau , b. von Biesenroth, Wengelsdorf passed after lengthy disputes in the years 1737 to 1763 to Susanna Albertina von Bünau, who was married to District Chamberlain Heinrich von Bünau . From their marriage a son came out as a feudal heir who was stupid and after the death of his parents he inherited the manor Wengelsdorf under guardianship. Representatives of the von Burkersroda family tried to become a feudal lord on the manor and when the mentally ill Heinrich von Bünau died in 1783, the noble von Burkersroda family took over the estate. But von Bünau still had two sisters who made claims to the parental property and bought it from von Burkersroda in 1784. In 1787 Countess Johanna Susanna von Peralta-Renaud, b. von Bünau, enfeoffed with the estate after her sister Johanna Albertina von Breitenbauch had waived it a year earlier in return for a cash payment. In 1862 Count Franz Friedrich Maximilian von Peralta-Renaud sold the estate to the previous tenant Hermann Zehe. Around 1907 his daughter (?) Emmy Beamish-Bernard, b. Toe. In 1920 their daughter married Annie Beamish-Bernard Otto Saenger, who owned the estate until it was expropriated in the course of the land reform in 1945.

Today the manor is used as a residential building.
