Great starting point for a walk around the Schiedersee. There are some free parking spaces available here.

Count Rudolph had the castle built between 1703 and 1708 by the Tyrolean architect Joseph Falck (1670-1712), who had previously worked on the new building of Corvey Abbey. The simple architecture of the building with its high hipped roof and the façades crowned with flat triangular gables corresponds to the "Dutch classicism" that defined the baroque architecture of Westphalia around 1700.
Next to the castle, Joseph Falck built the present "Palais" between 1705 and 1708 as a bakery and brewery with a castle chapel; the building was also called the "Kavaliershaus".
In 1708-09 Falck also built the Emmer Bridge, which no longer exists.

Count Rudolph had the castle built between 1703 and 1708 by the Tyrolean master builder Joseph Falck (1670-1712), who had previously worked on the new Corvey Abbey. The simple architecture corresponds to the "Dutch classicism" that determined the baroque architecture of Westphalia around 1700.
In addition to the castle, Joseph Falck built what is now the "Palais" in 1705-1708 as a bakery and brewery with a castle chapel; the building was also called "Kavaliershaus".
In 1708-09 Falck also built the Emmer Bridge, which is no longer preserved.
From 2006 the former baroque garden in the south of the palace park was reconstructed. First, the cascades with the staircases were renewed. After that, the terraces were given their original shape, and finally the ground floor was lowered. The plane trees had to go. The fountain was renewed and the wayside cross was redesigned. This made the baroque forms visible again. In the spring of 2009, the association created four flower beds on the ground floor, which complement the overall picture of the baroque garden.
The baroque garden was officially opened in May 2009
