Location: Fürstenau, Osnabrück, Lower Saxony, Germany
The town of Fürstenau was first mentioned as "Vorstenowe" in 1344. However, the castle had already been built before that, so the town may have existed there even earlier. The name means something like "Fürstenaue," which refers to the castle's owner, the Prince-Bishop of Osnabrück.In Fürstenau, don't miss the audio tour, which is well worth listening to.
