Great staff who are more than happy to talk to you about the place history. A LOT of toys, not only for kids but gives nostalgic feeling for adults too. Definitely recommend!

This is more of a huge (truly huge) private collection rather than a museum. There’s basically no information what so ever about the different objects. Also - a lot of the objects are really dusty and are clearly not being preserved. That said it’s a huge and wonderful collection of toys! Every thing from the 40s up until now. Mostly focusing on Barbie, Electric trains and Lego. Well worth the time and money.

Such a great place, fantastic for all ages! From old toys to the latest Lego, room after room, neverending selection of toys! Highly recommended!

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.
