history

The castle was built in 1854. It also included 70 Jucharten forest and 111 Jucharten cultural land, on which the founder George Treherne, an Englishman, set up a park. He fenced off his property with an approximately two meter high mesh fence and ran through the forest with roads on which he used to drive out with his guests in a carriage. After Treherne's death around 1878, the castle changed hands frequently until it burned down completely on October 13, 1914 after the outbreak of the First World War .
