The castle, built around 1343, was destroyed by the French around 1686 during the Palatinate War of Succession.
Today's castle was rebuilt on the same spot around 1760. It has been privately owned by the von Boeselager family since 1820 and has not been open to the public since then.

Very nice castle that is privately owned. Only the chapel on the castle hill can be visited.
