The oat box from 1583 was Schwelm's oldest building so far. In the late evening of August 27, 2019, it burned in the park of the Marfeld house.

🌾 The oat granary at Martfeld Castle in Schwelm is a significant historical monument and an impressive testament to Westphalian agricultural history. It is located directly adjacent to the former knight's seat, Haus Martfeld.
