History+

Baroness Anna Maria von Landsberg acquired the estate in 1727 and is regarded as the builder of the manor house. The brick building represents the Baroque style of the 18th century and features an unusually high cellar with a cross-rib vault. Before World War I, Haus Osthoff was an excursion destination, surrounded by a garden and high forest. After World War II, it served as a private residence until the 1960s, but subsequently fell into disrepair as a protected ruin.
