The house was built in 1857 in neo-Gothic style for Ferdinand Knauer, who worked as a beet sugar manufacturer and gave the building one of its names. During a partial renovation in 1999, the interior of the castle was gutted. As of 2022, the buildings have been empty for more than ten years and are characterized by decay. The park is very overgrown.

Above the main entrance of the listed building there is a medallion in which a sugar beet and the inscription You owe this house its existence are shown. The property is surrounded by a park. The former laboratory is located in the park. Noteworthy is the material used for the construction, silicified wood, which was a waste product from the mining industry in the area.

The building had 30 rooms with a total of 1500 m² of living space and an octagonal tower with a Gothic vault.

The "Schloss" has now been restored and shines in new splendor. A sweet gem. However, all hikers and cyclists should be considerate - there are now rental apartments here.

Behind the "Castle" there is a small forest that is left to its own devices (nature conservation) - the perfect place to catch some shade and coolness in the summer though.
