Too bad we can't tour it at least

It is beautiful, but the castle is private and cannot be entered.

I worked in this A.S.E.I center in 94-95. The castle is truly magnificent both outside and inside. I remember this beautiful and large staircase as well as the large fireplace on which we eat there between noon and two. It is really a pity that a visit cannot be done, it will really bring people to see how magnificent this castle is.

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.
