Vogelsangen was first mentioned in 1499 in the local church registers.

In 1528 Bertram von Dietrich married Anna von Elter zu Vogelsank for the second time .

In 1555 Engelbert von Scheidt called Weschpfennig was named as the owner of the Vogelsang. In 1550 he was bailiff of Blankenberg . In 1581 the estate is described as not being an aristocratic seat, but rather a Halfmanns Hoff until now . In 1583 Engelbert von Scheidt had to provide Siegburg with a horse and a pipe , the latter a rifleman. This speaks in favor of a lease. After his death in 1595, the services were transferred to his son Wilhelm. There is nothing left of the estate today.
