The beautiful castle in Amecke has been owned by the von Wrede family since 1338. The house, known in 1397 as "castrum Adenbecke", was divided into an upper and lower house in 1419. The upper house came to the von Heigen or Heggen and Droste zu Füchten families through marriage. The lower house remained in the continuous possession of the von Wrede family, who bought back the upper house in 1758 and were thus able to reunite the entire property.

Unfortunately, the castle is not available for public tours. But you can have a wonderful party here.
