The most significant testimony to the village's 700-year history is the Stockhausen estate. It includes the manor house and various farm buildings as well as a picturesque gatehouse. The inner courtyard of the estate has a medieval feel, while the chestnut avenue and the small estate cemetery also contribute to the historic charm of the village. Due to the valuable building fabric, a total of 19 buildings are listed as historical monuments.
