[5] In the past the German name was Strobelhof,[3] based on the name of the family that acquired the castle in the second half of the 17th century.

As early as the 12th century, the site was occupied by a fortification belonging to the noble Eghk family.

From 1580 to the first half of the 17th century, the castle was owned by the Diennersberg family; from 1705 to 1809, both it and the surrounding estate belonged to the counts Lamberg.

In that year, Janez Nepomuk Lamberg divided the estate, selling one half to Sigmund Pagliaruzzi.

The other half, including the castle itself, remained a Lamberg holding until 1817, when it was sold to Jožef Seunig.
