    The scientifically interested and reclusive General von Schlieffen spent his retirement in a reed-covered hermitage, and not in the manor house. He was buried in 1825 in the local mausoleum, which he had built 51 years (!) Before his death in 1774.

      Martin Ernst von Schlieffen (1732-1825) was the Hessian state minister and had this final resting place built in the Gothic architectural style during his lifetime.
