    There are no remains of the Vöhrum moated castle left on the surface. The castle was first mentioned on a map from the Meinersen office in 1675. At this point, however, only elevations of the former fortifications could still be seen. Oak piles discovered in the 1970s date back to around 1180. A total of almost 200 piles were found that are associated with the castle. Further scientific investigations in 2001 revealed an approximately trapezoidal structure of a core castle and typical associated facilities. Remains discovered in the following years indicate a stone tower and other stone foundations. Bones, ceramics, iron and bronze parts from the 13th century were also found, some of which are exhibited in the Pein District Museum.
