    The old village of Westerholt with its more than 60 half-timbered houses is something very special

    Translated by Google •

      🌳On the edge of the Westerholt Forest lies Westerholt Moated Castle, built in the 19th century and completely renovated in 1993.

      The name Westerholt comes from the term "Holz im Westen" (wood in the west), in the west of Recklinghausen.

      The word "Holz" stands for "forest."

      The adjacent "Altes Dorf" (Old Village), with its approximately 60 well-preserved half-timbered houses, is, like Westerholt Castle, one of the city's special cultural and historical monuments.
