Delightful little church located on a slight hill that enhances it. The well-kept grassy cemetery gives a relaxing and pleasant atmosphere. Landscape around love.

Nice old church (started to be built in the 11th-13th century) which is located in the middle of an agricultural area and by the road to Heistadmoen!

Good but very uneven lawn that is difficult to walk on

The place is under renovation due to lack of maintenance. Gets good when done.

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.
