Bloemersheim Castle (pronunciation: Blo: mersheim) is a moated castle near Neukirchen-Vluyn, one of the most impressive complexes in the Wesel district. Nearby is Leyenburg Castle.The facility, which dates from the late Middle Ages, was acquired by Friedrich Heinrich von der Leyen, silk producer from Krefeld, from Friedrich August von Pelden (called Cloudt) in 1802. It is still the headquarters of the Barons von der Leyen and the seat of an estate administration (with economically important fruit sales and forestry operations).The castle (castle courtyard and castle garden) is only accessible as part of rare cultural events, but the rear side of the castle pond can be viewed from a popular bike path.Source: wikipedia.org
