    Parts of a previous building from the 14th century were found in the walls of the ruins of Hertefeld Castle. In the centuries that followed, the lords of the castle repeatedly had something rebuilt or added until the castle burned down in the Second World War. Then part of the ruin was rebuilt. You can spend the night there today in a historical atmosphere.

    The original Clevish noble family first appeared in a document in 1179 with Theodoricus de Hertevelde as a representative of the family who called themselves Hertefeld (nddt. "Hirschfeld") after a locality van hertevelt "), the family must have lived in this place a long time before, especially since finds within the ruin prove the use of the place since the 13th century.

    The Hertefeld building, which today consists of a ruined castle and a pension building including a park, is located in the center of the municipality of Weeze in North Rhine-Westphalia. It goes back to a knight's seat from the 14th century.
