    The castle 🏰 is still inhabited by the princely family today. It is a popular venue - for example for the garden festival "Spring in the Park". In the Emswiesen the castle park goes into the Flora-Westfalica-Park, the former state garden show of 1988.

      Directly on the Ems is Castle Rheda, the moated castle of the princely family Bentheim-Tecklenburg

        Rheda Castle is a former moated castle in Rheda-Wiedenbrück, district of Gütersloh (North Rhine-Westphalia). Rheda Castle is internationally known for its double chapel from the Staufer period and the valuable music library.
        Rheda Castle is one of the mighty early moated castles in Westphalia, which were also the center of direct imperial rule and underwent the change from fortifications of the Middle Ages to the baroque residence of the sovereign. Protected by the castle, the city of Rheda was founded in the 14th century as the economic center of the small Rheda dominion.


        The palace has been the ancestral seat of the Princely House of Bentheim-Tecklenburg since 1557. The Rheda palace and park is part of the 100 palaces route.

          Castle 🏰 is the historic stone path, over which the garden and the park can be reached. Since 1973, visitors have passed through the former bleaching house, an old half-timbered house, which is now a painting workshop.

            Not far from the town center, the castle is surrounded by water on a slight hill. Below this is a large square with some historic half-timbered houses. The castle park has a variety of paths.

              The view over the meadows to the castle is wonderful

                  The castle sits on a hill above the Ems. Very nice to see both from the castle park and from the forecourt.

                    The impressive Rheda Castle in Rheda-Wiedenbrück is located on the edge of eastern Münsterland. The castle is internationally known for its double chapel from the Staufer period and its valuable music library. But the picturesque castle garden also delights visitors. It was partially restored according to historical plans for the State Garden Show in 1988.

                    The beautiful castle combines several architectural styles: a chapel tower from the 13th century, a Renaissance wing with a gallery and a Baroque wing. Also worth seeing are the important "White Hall" in the Rococo style, the Coach Museum, the Wallpaper Room and the castle chapel - an important example of late Romanesque architecture.
