The core of the knight's seat dates back to the 16th century and came to the von Bodelschwingh-Plettenberg family through marriage in 1688, who restored it around 1920.

The Geretzhoven knight's castle near Rheidt / Hüchelhoven is a spacious courtyard, which in its current form dates from the 16th / 17th centuries. This knight's seat in Kurköln was first mentioned in the 12th century. The vivid image of the moated castle was only minimally changed in 1920 through renovations and renovations. The trench system is only partially preserved. The manor house and the farm buildings have grown together to form a four-wing complex.
