1729 was the construction of the castle and a park in Baroque style.
In 1799 Duke Ernst II bought the castle for 40,000 gold marks for his son August as a wedding present and summer residence. The over 10-acre park was redesigned as an English landscape garden with groups of trees, avenues and ponds and surrounded by a wall of Seeberger sandstone. Later, the castle was also used as a guesthouse and hunting lodge. In 1937, the former Duke Carl Eduard donated the estate to the city of Gotha. At the time of the GDR fell the plant.
Since 1999, the Baroque building has been privately owned and used as an apartment building. The two castle ponds and the Mönchspark are open to the visitor and are used as a recreational area.
