        History

        The town of Loy first appears as "Loyge" in 1059 in the founding document of St. Ulrich's Church in Rastede. From 1275 onwards, a ministerial family called "von der Loy" is documented. The castle may have been built at this time. However, it is only documented for the year 1390, when a squire named Wynand called himself "van der Loye" after his castle. In the first half of the 15th century, the squires of Bardewisch and in 1450 the lords of Reeken owned it, who owned it in 1516 as a fief of the Rastede monastery and in 1557 as a fief of the county of Oldenburg.

        At the beginning of the 16th century, the complex was burned down and rebuilt as an estate in the second half of the 16th century. The fortifications were removed. The estate changed hands several times until it was acquired in 1874 by the later Privy Councillor Funch, whose descendants still own it today.
