In 1785 the manor came to the Holy Cross Monastery. In 1793 the chapel was rebuilt and refurbished on behalf of the Augustinian canons of Heilig-Kreuz . The plans come from Johann Stephan Gelb , because there is a chronogram with his name on the inner entrance door . In the course of secularization , the state sold it to a private person. In 1821 the buildings were demolished, with the exception of the chapel, which was left to the community. Holy Mass was celebrated every month and every year on the name day of the church patron.
