Waldthausen Castle is not a real castle, but it is still beautiful to look at and romantically located. The castle-like villa was built in the middle of the Lenneberg Forest between 1908 and 1910 on behalf of Baron Martin Wilhelm von Waldthausen in the style of a Hohenstaufen palace building with a square tower resembling a keep. The builder was a captain of a hussar regiment stationed in Mainz and came from a respected patrician and industrial family from Essen.
