Due to the limited space, the manor house was rebuilt in the English Tudor style in the 1840s. The plans for the new building came from cathedral master builder Ernst Friedrich Zwirner. The blue-reddish stone blocks come from the nearby Effenberg quarry. Stone from Menden and Herdecke was used for the cornices and windows. The stones for the foundation and interior walls came from the Sternhelle quarry. The new building is built as an elongated square with an open courtyard.

At the beginning of the 20th century, the Berlin architect Ernst von Ihne carried out extensive interior renovations and redesign.

In 1853, the then Prussian King Friedrich Wilhelm IV visited the castle.

In the 1960s, Herdringen Castle was the filming location and backdrop for the two Edgar Wallace films "The Black Abbot" and "The Forger of London". In 2008, the castle was used for filming the ZDF series "Krupp - A German Family".

Today it is available as a venue for celebrations and company events.

In addition, concerts are also held on the grounds. Fettes Brot, BAP, Roger Cicero, Die Fantastischen Vier and Atze Schröder have performed here, among others.

The castle can only be visited by groups after prior registration.

In 2022, the castle, together with its associated properties, was transferred to a cultural foundation. The castle is to be converted into a museum
