As early as 1882, Baron Stephan von Sarter laid the foundation stone for a representative residence: Drachenburg Castle, a mixture of villa, castle and palace. The Düsseldorf architect duo Leo von Abbema and Bernhard Tüshaus produced the first plans, which were revised by the Paris-based architect Wilhelm Hoffmann, a student of the Cologne cathedral builder Ernst Friedrich Zwirner.
