I had planned to stop here for lunch on a cycling tour as the reviews are good, Unfortunately it was closed and is only open for lunch at weekends. Today, May 7th. Opening hours are not displayed on the website, it would be useful to do so.

While bicycle touring along the Altmuhltal Radweg, we stopped for lunch. Excellent, crispy yet tender schnitzel, lusciously seasoned lamb shank that fell off the bone and melted in your mouth, richly flavored potato salad, and for desert, homemade, meringue topped, rhubarb kuchen, which, although we were full from our entrees, we somehow managed to make disappear as soon as it touched the table. Excellent service, great patio dining under umbrellas, and clean restrooms. This was a real find, do not miss it.

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.
