At the beginning of the 16th century, the Sibrik family received property in the area of the village as a royal donation. Osvát Sibrik was the owner of the house that was built on this site. The Sibrik family owned the manor building, which was rebuilt several times, until 1906. It received its current form in 1815 and was renovated in 1959. The castle is currently out of use, its park has been laid out in the style of an English garden. In its park and forest, there are trees older than hundreds of years. Its main entrance is on the west side from the Bozsok-patak, on the restored contemporary coat of arms the date 1614 preserves the owners' creed written in Latin: Protect him, Lord, who entered here and left here!

I especially recommend hikers to walk around the building! On the south side, you can see the typical horticultural elements of the English garden, flowers, flowering shrubs, sycamore trees, and yew trees. On the west side, from the main entrance, you can hear the soothing, babbling sound of the Bozsoki stream. On the north side is a magnificent meadow with the remains of the two-hundred-year-old pool. The giant trees of the forest, among them the magnificent shape of a bog pine, demarcate the space. The real surprise for me was the eastern side. Inside the castle moat, an original stone corner tower (with a renovated roof) can be seen at the northeast corner of the castle. In its southeast corner, a stone foundation marks the location of the contemporary defense structure. Beyond the fountain is a bamboo plantation, which is in a slightly neglected state... I'm sorry for the condition of the building, it deserves more from its current owner.
