Hörder Castle in the Hörde district of Dortmund was built in the 12th century near the Emscher as a moated castle and originally served as the ancestral home of the noble von Hörde family. After it belonged to different owners over the centuries and fulfilled different functions, including as the seat of the Counts von der Mark and later as the administrative building of the Hörder Mining and Metallurgical Association, the castle was extensively renovated and is now an architectural monument. It has been home to the Sparkassenakademie NRW since January 2017.
