Eberbach Monastery is considered the most outstanding and was founded in 1136 by the Cistercian Abbot Bernhard von Clairvaux. The monastery quickly developed into one of the most important Cistercian monasteries in Germany. The "Draiser Hof" was mainly used for cultivating vineyards and orchards and was used by the monks to provide for themselves. With its direct location on the Rhine, the farm also played an important role as a wine storage and transshipment point for the monastery's goods. They were loaded onto the monastery's own ships and shipped from here. In 1163, the courtyard was first mentioned as a "cellarium" (wine cellar). With the dissolution ("secularization") of Eberbach Monastery in 1803, the Draiser Hof also became the property of the Duke of Nassau, who gave it to his Minister of State von Gagern. In 1815, von Gagern sold the estate to Amtsrat Herber, who then sold it to the ancestor of the current family of Barons zu Innhausen and Knyphausen from East Friesland. Gerko Freiherr zu Knyphausen took over the initially agriculturally oriented business and developed it into one of the leading VDP wine estates in the Rheingau from 1969.
