Classically beautiful and touristy castle town. Known nationally and correspondingly well attended.

Beautiful castle on the side of the road. Nearby there is still a watermill and a monument to those killed in the wars.

We passed Gartrop Castle more or less by chance. You should put in the swing.

Thanks to the renovation of the town center that began in 1964, Brüggen's historical character has been preserved. Winding alleys, romantic archways, picturesque mills and traditional buildings give Brüggen its special charm. It is fun to go on a discovery tour in Brüggen and visit the beautifully restored houses, old alleys, city walls and parks. The first mention of the castle and town of Brüggen can be found in a marriage certificate dated December 24, 1289. Around 1306, Brüggen Castle was inherited by the Counts of Jülich. In 1350, it was expanded into the Jülich state fortress. Around 1473, soldiers of the Burgundian King Charles the Bold (1433 - 1477) conquered and plundered the Brüggen fortress and castle. A year later, it was plundered again by the Counts of Gelderland. The castle, which had now been badly damaged, was repaired and a second floor was added. The Counts of Moers received Brüggen Castle as a pledge and around 1494 the Counts of Jülich-Berg bought it back. In 1526 the fortifications of the town and castle were renewed and enlarged. In the years 1561 - 1577, construction work was carried out again and the fortifications were adapted to the development of offensive weapons. The oldest surviving drawing of Brüggen Castle was created around 1623. It shows the castle as a closed structure with four towers (spire roofs). Around 1770 the Rentei was rebuilt by the ducal court architect Klees. The earthen ramparts at the castle were partially demolished. In 1794 Brüggen was occupied by French troops and the Brüggen office was dissolved. Source: https://www.rheinruhronline.de/niederrhein/niederrheinteil2/brueggen/burgbrueggen.htm
