The Luccaburg gave the present-day town of Loccum its name. The castle complex was once located on a circular hill. The actual ruins of the castle now lie half a meter below ground level. The walls that can be seen today are a memorial to Prior Franzen. The castle itself had probably already been abandoned when the monks from Volkenroda settled in this area and founded their monastery here. The site was given to them in 1163 by the then lord of the castle, Wulbrand von Hallersmund.

Hagenburg Castle, the forerunner of Hagenburg Castle, was first mentioned in a document in 1369 as Hagenborch. It probably goes back to the Counts of Schaumburg, when they set foot on the Steinhuder Meer in the 14th century. The castle was probably used in the early 14th century to secure the settlement of Hagenburg, which was built in the second half of the 13th century. From the 14th century onwards, the castle was often mortgaged and later served as the administrative seat of the Hagenburg district. In 1518 the brothers Anton and Johann zu Holstein-Schaumburg were enfeoffed with the castle by the Hessian landgrave. The lords of Heimburg sat here as their ministerials until 1558, after that Ludolf Klencke was. In 1558 Klencke had a gatehouse built and the castle rebuilt. In the living quarters he installed a spiral staircase. In 1574 his son Ernst Ludolf arranged for some renovations and the construction of a sheepfold.
