Keeni Manor (Kehn, later Koenen, Konhöf) was first mentioned in 1551. From 1924 until its dispossession in 1920, the manor belonged to the Lilienfelds. A single-storey stone main building was constructed at the end of the 18th century but was changed much in the 19th century. Nowadays it's again in private possession.[3]

Since 1840 a school is working in Keeni.
