    The Torhaus Legge with its distinctive archway is centrally located in the old town of Tecklenburg. Count Mauritz von Tecklenburg had a linen testing institute, the Legge, built in the gatehouse built in 1577 in 1660. For a long time, linen production was of great importance to the people of Tecklenburg.

    Today the Legge is the central facility for those interested in art, whether painters, sculptors, graphic artists or photographers. Changing art exhibitions take place throughout the year, most of which can be visited on the weekends. These are organized by Tecklenburg Touristik GmbH.

    The name "Legge" comes from the fact that linen trade was operated here at the time, where the linen was "laid out" for measurement.
