The historic nucleus was the moth, now overgrown by trees, in the middle of the mill pond. This moth Tüschenbroich (ground monument on an island probably separated from the mainland by a ditch in the middle of the castle pond) erected as a moated castle and first mentioned in a document in 1172 as Thuschinbroc. The buildings burned down in the Thirty Years' War.

The ensemble of castle, restaurant, pond, medieval motte and oil mill together with the opposite fishing park at the former swimming pool is quite unique in the local area. In addition, there is the legendary Ulrichskapelle on the forest path just behind the oil mill. In the oil mill is a recommended studio of an internationally renowned glass artist. If the sign "open" is outside, be sure to check it out!

The historical nucleus was the Motte, which is now overgrown by trees and located in the middle of the Mühlweiher. This motte Tüschenbroich (ground monument on an island in the middle of the castle pond, probably separated from the mainland by a ditch) was built as a moated castle and was first mentioned in documents in 1172 as Thuschinbroc. The buildings burned down during the Thirty Years' War.

Tüschenbroich belonged to Wassenberg and later to the Duchy of Jülich.

In 1624, Franz von Spiering bought Tüschenbroich, which had been destroyed in the war, for 24,200 Reichstaler. He had the complex rebuilt as a baroque palace complex in brick construction. The "Codex Welser", an illustrated inventory of all knightly fiefdoms in the Duchy of Jülich, from 1720 shows both the main castle island and the outer bailey complex, which is still partially preserved today and later mutated into the main castle after being destroyed.

The Tüschenbroicher Castle is located on the site of a former medieval fortification, a so-called moth.
Tüschenbroich Castle in its current form dates from the 17th and 18th centuries. After the property was acquired by Franz Freiherr von Spiering, he had the former outer bailey converted into a palace according to his plans, which is now privately owned and can only be visited by appointment. The castle complex also includes a historic oil mill from the 18th century and a former grain mill, which is located on the opposite bank of the castle pond and now houses a restaurant. Also worth seeing is the baroque Ulrichskapelle, which is located in the Tüschenbroicher Forest and was built in the 17th century. The area around the castle with the local recreation area Tüschenbroicher Wald is a popular destination today. Whether cyclists, hikers or families in summer, everyone will find relaxation from the hustle and bustle of the big city.

Beautifully situated in the middle of the pond. Unfortunately, the castle and inner courtyard cannot be visited as the site is privately owned.

Near the town of Tüschenbroich towards the hamlet of Watern lies the beautiful Schloss Tüschenbroich surrounded by a beautiful pond.
A visit to the Marien Kapelle is also recommended.
