In 1624 Franz von Spiering bought Tüschenbroich, which had been destroyed in the war, for 24,200 Reichstaler. He had the complex rebuilt as a baroque palace complex in brick construction. The "Codex Welser", an illustrated inventory of all knightly feudal estates in the Duchy of Jülich, shows the main castle island as well as the outer castle complex, which is still partially preserved, which later, after being destroyed, mutated into the main castle.
