In the village there is a former manor and castle of the von Benckendorff family. The feudal estate at that time was built from 1750 to 1753 using an older part from 1600. The angled passage in the southern part of the wing is artistically interesting for local reasons.

In the courtyard there is a stone fountain basin in a simple rococo shape . The Schlottenhofer Brunnenwastl in traditional Egerland costume is depicted on the eight-sided fountain column .
