Visite intéressante mais trop peu de temps pour regarder les œuvres du peintre. Ce que nous avons vu était intéressant mais nous espérions voir un peu plus que 5 pièces du château.

Don't expect to find original HTL artwork in this mansion. The guide explains the lineage of Du Bosc and Toulouse Lautrec which resulted in the birth of the artist. A pampered little boy and a man with a strong character, his family home contains a whole host of his familiar objects. Did Henri take tea under the plane tree with his mother? We imagine it ... interesting and moving

A dusty visit where you will discover the family's crockery, its furniture and many other things ... but little to see no highlighting of the man himself ... Mediation side, it is 15 years late.

There is not possibility of free visit. Just guided and just in french. If you don't speak french you will get really bored.

Kakesbeck Castle

Kakesbeck is one of the largest medieval fortifications in Münsterland and the oldest castle in Lüdinghausen. The imposingly grown complex originated in 1120 as a motte, a small hilltop tower castle. After numerous changes of ownership, the castle was extended onto two islands, but it was not until the 14th century that it underwent significant alterations and extensions under the von Oer family. The estate experienced its heyday in the middle of the 18th century, when it covered an area of almost one square kilometre and consisted of five further outer castles in addition to the core castle, which were secured by ramparts and moats.

The well-maintained condition of the castle today is thanks to the late Wilfried Grewing, the former lord of the castle. The foundation named after him has been particularly committed to preserving the property since 2020.
