The orangery in the Jugendburg Gemen is currently used as a conference and group room. An escape room is to be built there in 2021.

Gemen Castle is located in the Münsterland parkland in the former swamp area of the Bocholter Aa. Even if the name suggests otherwise, the complex is now a castle. Today's Borken district of Gemen in North Rhine-Westphalia gave its name to its former castle freedom.

The castle was created from the gradual conversion of a moated castle that was more than 900 years old and was built by the noble lords of Gemen, one of the most influential Westphalian noble families of its time. It stands on two islands surrounded by a far-reaching system of mounds. The castle was the center of the Gemen dominion.
