The castle was built in the 13th century by Gaspard-Florent de Breiderbach in the English Gothic style. In 1813, it was acquired by the De Blochhausen family. Baron Félix de Blochhausen was born at the castle in March 1834 and died there in November 1915. The castle passed into the possession of the family of Charles de Broqueville in 1935. During World War II, American troops were stationed in the building. Inscriptions and graffiti from these soldiers can still be seen on the castle walls today. The castle was abandoned in 2002.
