Baron Daniël Wolf van Dopff, then military governor of Maastricht, had the castle built starting in 1698. He used the castle as a country estate and guesthouse, hosting receptions and parties there. One of the most famous visitors was Tsar Peter the Great in 1717.

Château Neercanne is a beautiful 17th-century terraced castle situated high above the Jekerdal valley, just across the border near Kanne (administratively part of Maastricht). It was built in 1698 by Baron Daniël Wolf van Dopff, military governor of Maastricht, and is the only terraced castle in the Benelux: it is located on stone heap-shaped terraces in the marl cliffs.
