HISTORY AND SCENIC CHARACTER
First a Cistercian monastery was founded in 1172, then in 1552 secularised by a duke and converted into Palace with Renaissance style. This Palace burnt down in the 17th century, but was rebuilt again. At the end of World War II it burnt down again and only ruins are left. Since 1994 some repairs happen.
