    The former manor has been mentioned since the 13th century. At the beginning of the 18th century, the moated castle was converted into a baroque palace.
    In 1838 the owners had the south wing of the castle demolished, which is why it has been called "Half Castle" ever since.
    After World War II, the owners were expropriated by the Soviet occupation forces.
    A school was then set up in the building, after which the castle continued to be used for other purposes, and from around 1980 it was left to decay. It has been privately owned since an auction in 2015.

      The south wing of the "Half Castle" has not existed since 1838. In the meantime, an association is taking care of securing and restoring the castle.

        The building, which is said to house numerous original features from the Baroque period, is now considered a collapse.

          Originating from a former moated castle from the 13th century, the castle was built in the years 1707-1711 as a four-wing complex in the Baroque style. In 1838 the owners had the south wing torn down for reasons that were not clear, and since then it has been named Halbes Schloß. Today it is unfortunately in poor condition.
