Unfortunately, I was only able to catch a glimpse of the listed secular building in the farmhouse in Merfeld through the locked gates. I would have liked to have seen the St. Antonius Abt Chapel....

House Merfeld is probably the origin of the Merfeld community, first mentioned around 890
You can read more information here de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haus_Merfeld.
The municipality of Merfeld has belonged to the city of Dülmen since 1975, and of course Merfeld is particularly famous for the Merfelder Bruch and the wild horses that live there.
