Today, the castle houses a restaurant and a mustard mill. But you can also visit some places.

The castle towers high above the old town of Bad Münstereifel. Man can do part of the battlement and a tower. Otherwise, there is a restaurant here.

Very beautiful castle above Bad Münstereifel
The castle was not built until late, at the end of the 13th / beginning of the 14th century. It only served as a residence for a short time. One of its residents - the knight Gottfried - can still be visited today. More precisely: His high grave in the collegiate church, because the knight Gottfried died on May 3, 1335.
Most of the time, the castle was the official seat of a bailiff and a bailiff. In 1689 the castle was set on fire by French troops. After that, the people of Münster liked to use stones from the castle ruins to build their own houses.
