パーダーボルンの洞窟・トップ20

The former hunting lodge of Prince-Bishop Dietrich Adolph von der Recke is a listed building and is now owned by the Catholic parish of St. Johannes Nepomuk. The historic half-timbered building is now a Hövelhof landmark and a popular photo backdrop. The castle gardens are a great place to linger. The Hövelhof Tourist Information and the Ems Cycle Path office are located in the adjacent building.

A walk through the abandoned city is highly recommended. The audio museum is very informative.

Very nice castle with great grounds. Definitely worth seeing.

Coming from the main street, the front promises a lot. However, you should definitely go further into the palace gardens. The size is gigantic and forms a great backdrop.

The first written mention of Hamborn comes from the 9th century in a document from the monastery of Corvey. Between 1137 and 1140, Hamborn was donated to the Paderborn cathedral chapter (date of the burnt deed of donation according to the Westphalian document book). The result is the obedience of Hamborn. The origins of the castle go back to two estates that were bought by the von Hartmann family in the mid-19th century and combined into one estate. The family built what is now the east wing of the castle.

In 1994 the state horticultural show took place here, and even today the castle with its park and the beautiful and well-tended plants is always worth a visit.

I was startled when a signal suddenly sounded behind me and was about to rush into the castle... Great idea, especially for children. Speakers, slightly hidden, that tell you a little about the surroundings and history in the simplest way. A short, easy story. I liked it.

The ruin is picturesquely located directly at the source of the Lippe.
