Rheda Castle is a former moated castle. Rheda Castle is internationally known for its double chapel from the Staufer era and the valuable music library.
Rheda Castle is one of the mighty early moated castles in Westphalia, which were at the same time the focus of imperial rule and underwent the change from fortification in the Middle Ages to the baroque residence of the sovereign. Under the protection of the castle, the city of Rheda was founded in the 14th century as the economic center of the small rule of Rheda.
