Reliable information about the building history of Vlotho Castle is scarce; most of the information is based on assumptions. After the castle was built around 1250, it was demolished around 1368. Apart from the foundations, hardly any components have survived from the High Middle Ages. There are few drawings from 1581; but these do not show a binding view of the castle. The existing models (e.g. by W. Kreideweiß) are also based on assumptions. In 1709 the castle was systematically demolished and the area practically leveled. The prison remained in place until the 1936s.
