Gut Kesselsberg

Gut Kesselsberg is an estate in the Huckingen district with buildings arranged around a central courtyard layout. The main residential structures and farm buildings date to the late 18th century and form the property's core design.

The property first appeared in documents in 1349 when Wennemar von Bottlenberg received it as a leasehold from Margarete von Ravensberg-Berg. Over the centuries it evolved from a feudal holding into an independent working farm with growing local standing.

The name reflects the Kessel family's long association with the property and its role in local memory. Visitors can trace this connection through the estate's place in the neighborhood's story.

The estate sits near Kesselsberg subway station on the U79 line, offering direct connections to central Duisburg. Visitors should note that the property now functions as a modern riding center and boarding facility with access based on its current use.

The hilltop location has yielded archaeological finds from multiple periods spanning from the Neolithic through Frankish times, showing that people have settled this spot for thousands of years. This layered past makes the estate remarkable from a regional history perspective.
