It used to be the Forchheim kindergarten and the dentist also had his practice here. However, the manor has been in private hands for a number of years. The new owners have renovated and modernized a lot.

Forchheim Castle was built in 1558 for Christoph von Berbisdorf.

The city of Chemnitz acquired the castle in 1912, as it did with other manors and properties in the area. It needed large areas to build the Saidenbach Dam. Construction was delayed until well after the end of the First World War. The castle was used by the forestry administration and as a children's convalescent home. It later served as the hunting lodge of the notorious Martin Mutschmann.

From 1953, Niederforchheim Castle was used as a kindergarten. The outbuildings were demolished in the 1970s.

The kindergarten moved out in 1999. The previous year, the castle was purchased privately. Since then, the castle has been renovated and surrounded by a high wall.
