The manor was first mentioned in 1568. In the 17th century, family members were von Pentzig (Wiegandt Adolf von Pentzig), in the 18th century von Warnsdorf[1] owners, before 1753 Anton Christian von Kleist sold the war-damaged manor to Matthias Joachim Ernst Manteuffel-Kiełpiński, who already owned it sold to Peter August von Schönberg ten years later.With the help of the construction manager Matthäus Daniel Pöppelmann the Younger, Schönberg had the grounds and park generously redesigned in the Rococo style. By marriage, the von Kielmannsegge family came into possession of the estate in 1802, which was damaged in 1812, a year before the Battle of Bautzen, but was used as a hospital during the battle, and in 1813 by French troops, who found enemy weapons and uniforms there, was destroyed. The park and palace were then rebuilt before Auguste Charlotte von Kielmannsegge sold it to Johann Sigismund Graf Riesch auf Neschwitz[2] in 1821, who had the park redesigned in the English style.
