Schloss Steinhausen mit Skulpturengarten

Very nice facility. Unfortunately, you can not enjoy the sun in the idyllic castle courtyard with delicacies, the restoration is only for closed societies! This is the old house of prayer worth a visit!

Really cozy there to feast

In addition to a wonderful time travel through the history of coal mining, you can enjoy the beautiful nature and make a detour to an old castle ruins with fantastic views over the Ruhr and surrounding area. A very versatile hike.

Steinhausen Castle is located on the mining trail Muttental in the Witten district of Bommern south of the Ruhr. Its landmark is a round tower on the east side of the castle grounds, which currently lacks the helmet.

Just worth seeing for young and old

We happened to come to this beautiful Steinhausen Castle in Witten an der Ruhr at the end of a hike through the Muttenbachtal. There were sculptures made of serpentine stone by artists from Zimbabwe and great garden art and figures made of upcycled metal and driftwood. The truly extraordinary objects are presented in an appealing ambience and make the SHONA-ART GALLERY with its expanded barn and castle garden a cultural highlight. After a lot of old mines, in the middle of an old forest and near the Ruhr, Steinhausen Castle offers the perfect ambience in which the African objects come into their own in all their splendor.

Stone sculptures from Zimbabwe, South Africa, are among the highlights of the international stone sculptor scene and have been captivating visitors to Steinhausen Castle in Witten an der Ruhr for years.

Steinhausen Castle was built in the 13th century by the Lords of Witten to secure a Ruhr crossing. However, Schloss Steinhausen got its present appearance essentially after 1893, when a Witten entrepreneur took over the complex and had it adapted to the zeitgeist in the style of historicism. Steinhausen Castle can only be visited from the outside, but the castle park is freely accessible.

Wow a very nice courtyard with incredibly beautiful sculptures.

Castle Steinhausen offers a lot of art and a lot of art to watch and buy.

Steinhausen Castle is on the Muttental mining trail in the Bommern district of Witten, south of the Ruhr. Its landmark is a round tower on the east side of the palace area, which currently lacks a helmet.

Built in the 13th century by the Lords of Witten, it served to secure a crossing over the Ruhr. The estate came to the Staël von Holstein family through marriage in the 15th century and remained in their possession for almost three centuries before it passed to the Barons von Elverfeldt. After changes of ownership in quick succession during the 19th century, the Witten entrepreneur Friedrich Wilhelm Dünkelberg acquired the building complex in 1893 and had it extensively modified in the style of historicism. It gave it its current appearance.

The palace complex is now home to a restaurant and artist studios, among other things. It can only be viewed from the outside. However, the small castle park is open to the public.

Restaurant and beer garden

You can also buy small works of art on the farm and take them with you

There are some animals in the exhibition right on the hiking trail.

A big highlight towards the end of the hike. All of these wonderfully designed works of art can be found in an old courtyard.

A very nice court area

He mansion land, which one should visit

Unfortunately, there was no exhibition at our place

There you can buy sculptures from giant elephants to small birds. But didn't always open.

Rewarding exhibition with bizarre pieces.

Great sculptures, from funny to loving, from junk, from stone, from big to small.
