The simple, two-storey classicist building with plastered half-timbering was built in 1782. In 1915 the owner at the time added a neoclassical porch with a balcony under the triangular gable, and since then the building has been referred to as a palace.

After an eventful history, the castle is now privately owned. It is used as a residential complex for a dental clinic, and in the renovated cavalier house there is a hotel with a wellness facility.
