Arloff Castle

It is Arloff Castle.
Arloff Castle was first mentioned in 1278. In 1278, the castle and associated lands were owned by the “Gerlach von Dollendorf”, whose family, the Nobles von Dollendorf, resided at their ancestral home of Dollendorf-Schloßthal Castle near Blankenheim from 893 until the middle of the 15th century. At the time, the Dollendorfers were among the oldest and richest noble houses in the region. Gerlach, who gave his property in Arloff as a fief to the Cologne Archbishop Siegfried in 1278, had already been forced to do so with the castle and their lands in the neighboring town of “Kirspenich”, which were also owned by the “Dollendorfer”.The balance of power changed ten years later when the “Jülich” were on the victorious side against “Siegfried” in the Battle of Worringen in 1288.[2] The Count of Jülich, who belonged to the winning party, succeeded him as feudal lord, but had little interest in the small castle. In order to avoid further disputes about the castle, its respective owner was summoned to the state parliaments of both principalities. This compromise was sustainable for the next 500 years.Source and further information: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burg_Arloff
