Lüdinghausen Castle

Built in the 12th century by members of the von Lüdinghausen dynasty, the Lüdinghausen castle later came into the possession of the Bishop of Münster or the cathedral chapter. In the second half of the 16th century, Canon Gottfried von Raesfeld rebuilt the complex into a typical Renaissance castle - with elaborately decorated window gables and a magnificent coat of arms plaque in the inner courtyard of the castle complex. In the 19th century, the castle initially passed into the hands of the Prussians before becoming private property.

Surrounded by a magnificent park, which once formed the fortification system, the castle lies in the heart of the town, right next to the town hall.
