The first documented references to Haus Heidhorn date back to 1235, when the knight Themo de Berle sold a piece of forest belonging to the estate to the monastery of St. Aegidii. A short time later, Haus Heidhorn finally became the property of this monastery. There is at least evidence of feudal levies from Sankt Aegidii up until 1795. In the years that followed, the residents of Haus Heidhorn apparently suffered repeatedly from marauding mercenaries from Spanish, Dutch and Prussian troops. In 1812, the estate became French after being occupied by Napoleonic troops.
