Near Lorsbeck a Middle Stone Age outdoor station (temporary rest area of hunters groups in open terrain) is occupied.
Beck means Bach. Lors is thought to have originated from lurissa, whereby the constituent "isa" again means brook or water. Lorsbeck would therefore be interpreted as a "settlement on the water".
The village Lorsbeck was probably completely destroyed in 1542 in the third monetary War of Succession. Only the then house Lorsbeck and the neighboring, the same estate were rebuilt.
Lorsbeck belonged to the parish of Kirchberg. Therefore, the wealthy and nobles from Lorsbeck were buried in the local parish church of St. Martin, what some weathered grave stones occupy.

The house was known since the 14th century as a knight's seat and was in possession of a homonymous sex. In the 18th century was the new construction of the mansion of the plant. During the Second World War, the main house was almost completely destroyed, but rebuilt in the 1950s in simple forms. With the exception of its landmarked gate tower, Haus Lorsbeck was demolished in February 2011.

The manor consists of a closed four-sided courtyard in brick on an almost square floor plan. It was formerly surrounded by a ditch. The southern wing consists of the mansion on the eaves and the gate building to the west. The manor house was dated 1696 with an anchor inscription and was probably unadorned except for a narrow block frieze on the eaves. It was two-story with a steep gable roof and had four slightly irregular window axes on the eaves side and two regular window axes on the gable side. The window openings were renewed in the shape of the late 19th century. On the eaves side, there were three brick buttresses between the window axes at the level of the ground floor.
