At the former location of the Ehrenburg, the "castle remains" can be guessed rather than seen,

but in the "Burggarten" a nice rest area has been set up off the road.

The Ehrenburg Merian engraving from 1654

The place was named after the Ehrenburg buried in the forest. It already existed in the 14th century and was in the domain of the county of Altbruchhausen (today Bruchhausen-Vilsen), which passed to the county of Hoya in the middle of the 14th century. The Ehrenburg was destroyed during the Hildesheim monastery feud. In 1546 the Counts of Hoya rebuilt the castle as a strong fortress because it was a border castle against the Niederstift Münster. With the castle the road Nienburg-Vechta could be controlled. The castle was damaged again in the Thirty Years' War, but the Merian engraving from 1654 shows a castle repaired as a magnificent drostei. This expired in the following period, because around 1740 a new, electoral Hanoverian office building was built a few hundred meters west of the castle on the domain estate.

Beautiful gardens reminiscent of the former Ehrenburg, a fortress first mentioned in documents in 1427.
