Lorsbeck Manor

The house was known as a knight's seat since the 14th century and was originally surrounded by a village. The village was presumably completely destroyed in 1542 during the Brabant Feud and never rebuilt. Only the house remained and was named "Haus Lorsbeck" after its owners. In 1750, the manor house was rebuilt. During the Second World War, most of the buildings were destroyed. Only the tower and the outer bailey of the castle remained. After 1945, the house was rebuilt.

In February 2011, the entire complex, except for the listed tower, was demolished. Door and window openings were bricked up. Owners were:

• Family von Lorsbeck
• Family von Harff
• 1669 Brothers Wilhelm and Johann von Blittersdorf zu Oberempt
• through marriage to Theodor Joseph von Rossum
• 1817 Wilhelm Schneiders, postmaster from Jülich
• Jülich Sugar Factory
