Lüdinghausen Castle is a moated castle in Lüdinghausen in the district of Coesfeld. Together with Vischering and Wolfsberg Castles, it is one of three castles in the Lüdinghausen urban area. The Knights of Lüdinghausen, mentioned since the 12th century, were enfeoffed with the castle by Werden Abbey near Essen. At the same time, they were ministerials of the Bishop of Münster. Striving for independence, which culminated in the unauthorized elevation of Lüdinghausen to the status of a town, and the construction of Wolfsberg Castle led to the campaign of the Münster Bishop Gerhard von der Mark against Lüdinghausen in 1271. A tower was mentioned in historical records. After the defeat of the Lords of Lüdinghausen, Lüdinghausen Castle, unlike Wolfsberg Castle, was allowed to remain, but was declared the Bishop's open house. In 1334, a gatehouse, an old and a new stone house, each with a kitchen, and a keep were mentioned. The castle remained in the possession of the Lords of Lüdinghausen until the family died out in 1443, and then passed to the Bishop of Münster. In 1445, a castle chapel connected to the gatehouse was mentioned in the outer bailey. An inventory from 1450/51 also lists a bakery and brewery in the main castle and a building house and a cowhouse in the outer bailey. The castle was acquired in 1499 by the cathedral waiter Dietrich von Heyden, and after his death in 1509 it became the official residence of the cathedral chapter of Münster. In 1538, it was described as dilapidated. After a fire, between 1569 and 1573, the cathedral chapter Gottfried von Raesfeld had the castle rebuilt in the Renaissance style on the old walls. During the Thirty Years' War, the Hessians occupied the castle for three years and expanded it. In 1802, it passed into private hands and was home to an agricultural school from 1869 to 1972. In 1829 the keep was demolished and is now marked in the paving of the castle courtyard. In 1880 the west wing was replaced by a new building for the agricultural school and the outer bailey was renovated. In 1906/07 the gatehouse was modernized and the courtyard facade of the south wing was restored. In 2000 the castle was restored and converted into an events center.
