In 1710, the Meiningen duke Ernst Ludwig I had a hunting lodge built in Dreisigacker. From 1743 to 1785 it was owned by Duchess Luise Dorothea of Saxe-Gotha. In 1801 Johann Matthäus Bechstein founded a school for forestry and hunting in the castle. In 1803, Duke Georg I of Saxe-Meiningen established the institution as the first forestry academy in what is now Thuringia. In 1843 the academy was dissolved by Duke Bernhard II. From 1846, the castle served as a domicile for the Meiningen military, before it was used as a prison camp for a short time from 1870. In 1920, Eduard Weitsch founded a folk high school in the castle. From 1946 to 1991 it was the seat of the Meiningen Institute for Teacher Education, which was housed in several buildings in Dreißigacker and Meiningen.

The castle with its 1650 m² floor space was renovated and has been used as a residential building with 16 residential units since 2002.
