    Historic place of the Ehrenburg. Now a cozy resting place

      A beautifully designed place that invites you to linger. A little off the road you follow an avenue of fruit trees and come to a place where the remains of the "Ehrenburg" are said to be. There is actually nothing left to see there, except for a beautiful bench with a matching table. The description on the plaque that is also there reads very exciting from a historical point of view. Should you have seen it!

        The Ehrenburg Merian engraving from 1654

        The place was named after the Ehrenburg that was buried in the forest. It already existed in the 14th century and was part of the county of Altbruchhausen (today Bruchhausen-Vilsen), which passed to the county of Hoya in the mid-14th century. The Ehrenburg was destroyed during the Hildesheim Stiftsfehde. In 1546, the Counts of Hoya rebuilt the castle as a strong fortress, since it was a border castle against the Lower Monastery of Münster. The Nienburg-Vechta road could be controlled with the castle. The castle was damaged again in the Thirty Years' War, but the Merian engraving from 1654 already shows a castle that had been repaired as a magnificent cloister. This subsequently fell into disrepair, because around 1740 a new, electoral Hanoverian office building was built a few hundred meters west of the castle on the domain estate. Info: wikipedia.org
