The Plattenburg is one of the largest moated castles in northern Germany. The first complex was built here as a protective castle in the 12th century. Over the centuries it underwent repeated expansions and renovations. Last but not least, the income from the pilgrimage period allowed for a magnificent expansion. Various events take place here and the castle café is also open a few days a week. You can find further information and opening times here: die Plattenburg.com/.

Beer from the Plattenburg's own brewery is served - tasty and refreshing.

Behind the Plattenburg there are fish ponds where you can fish for a fee and equipment can also be rented. The local fishery also smokes the fish itself, which you can buy. The fish rolls are highly recommended!
