Around 1350 the fiefdom directory already mentions a castrum, which proves that at that time it was already a two-part moated castle, separated into a fore and a main castle, whose floor plan has probably been preserved to this day.
The oldest part of the castle is the west wing with the stair tower, which hides a stone spiral staircase inside. Its construction is dated to the early 15th century.

The only surviving nobility seat of rule Kerpen-Lommersum.
In 1930 Duke August sold the castle to the current owners, the Kieselstein family.
In the west and in the east there are good dirt roads, parallel to the Kessenicher road - but this road is also worth it to be driven, because the castle, as well not to visit easily is also worth seeing from the outside!
