Falkenburg Castle once served as the seat of power in Lippe. But that was a long time ago.
Before excavations began in 2004, Falkenburg Castle was just an inconspicuous ruin, a popular destination for Sunday family outings and hikes. No one would have guessed back then that such an impressive and imposing castle complex lay hidden underground.
It was all the more wonderful to see how these ruins grew year after year, revealing their secrets.
