Neersen Castle

When it was built, Neersen Castle was still a moated castle on the Niers River. It was located directly on the Niers, which fed the moat and, until it was straightened in 1930, passed directly by the castle and later the palace. According to all assumptions, the name Neersen stems from this fact. Today the Niers is about a kilometer from the castle.
As part of Euroga 2002, it was part of a national garden show in North Rhine-Westphalia. For this occasion, the outdoor facilities were restored based on models from the 18th century. In the park is the Park of the Senses with various stations such as labyrinths, etc.

In the summer, an open-air stage is built in the main entrance area and the Castle Festival takes place.

There was a wedding here. In summer, the Neersen Castle Festival is known beyond the borders of the district. The castle park is particularly worthwhile for families. There are playgrounds and plenty of adventure stations.
