The manor built in the 16th century initially belonged to the Lords of Kellenbach, and from 1711 to 1853 it was owned by the Lords of Fürstenwärther, vassals of Odenbach, and descendants from the marriage between Duke Friedrich Ludwig of Pfalz-Zweibrücken and the bell-ringer's daughter Maria Hepp. They were elevated to the rank of barons in 1711. The facade of the building was altered during renovations in 1855 by architect Krausch. The coat of arms above the balcony door shows on the left: von Fürstenwärther (a woman with a Trinity flower looking out from a tower), and on the right von Kellenbach (a lion).
