Believe it or not, but cemetery's are actually quite different round the world, differences which takes root in the culture of the respective countries and regions. Visiting a cemetery helps to get a better understanding of the people in and history of an area - and can actually be a great experience as a tourist - especially if you use Google translate to translate signs and headstones!

I think it's nice to come to the cemetery because it's always quiet and neatly cleaned up, rarely withered bouquets

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.
