Charles de Wendel obtained permission in 1758 to set up a forge on the Rosselle and built the château close to it around 1762. In 1808 it passed to Ignace d’Hausen, nephew of Wendel’s widow, and the 1836 cadastral plan already shows the domain much as it is today: château, outbuildings and the pleasure garden. The house later belonged to the Gouvy company, then to the Saar-Moselle collieries, whose nationalised successor made it its headquarters; since 2004 it houses the town hall. The 2019 listing covers the garden in its entirety, with its terracing, basins, low walls, steps, the remains of the former ornamental pond, the palisade and the grotto, as well as the orangery and the gardener’s house.
