    The castle looks great from every angle!
    The moated castle was built in the 13th century and was the ancestral home of the Knights of Bergerhausen. Around 1320, the Bergerhausen brothers sold part of their property to the Mariengradenstift in Cologne. The Archbishops of Cologne acquired the lordship to defend their territory.
    In 1334, Archbishop Walram gave Bergerhausen Castle to the knight Hans-Ulrich von Bergerhausen for services rendered.
    Around 1430, the descendants provided the castle with strong fortifications.

      Photos and, on sections, bikes forbidden, but nice to look at and ideal for a rest with a view and duck.

        Was built in the 13th century and was the headquarters of the Bergerhausen knights. Now used for occasions or even film sets.
