ハレ（ヴェスト）の洞窟・トップ18

The castle, located in the picturesque Holtfeld district of Borgholzhausen, impresses with its unique architecture. In addition to the idyllic outer bailey and the impressive main building, the partially preserved moat complex and the oak avenue access are particularly worth seeing. The moated castle was first mentioned in documents in 1350 and was owned by the Lords of Wendt from 1491 to 1863. The manor house, built between 1599 and 1602, is an imposing gabled building with a square corner tower and magnificent volute gables. The moated castle cannot be visited. It is located on a well-accessible road.

Two watermills used to belong to Königsbrück Castle; today only the Niedermühle on the Warmenau remains, exactly on the border between Lower Saxony and North Rhine-Westphalia.

The Mühlenteich is a little off the Königsbrück Castle in Lower Saxony. The Warmenau is the border to North Rhine-Westphalia

Schloss Königsbrück

The Sparrenburg is a restored fortress in Bielefeld's Mitte district. The Sparrenburg is located on the 180 m high Sparrenberg in the Teutoburg Forest and towers over the nearby city center by a good 60 m. Its current appearance dates back to the 16th and 19th centuries.

Used as an anti-aircraft gun emplacement during World War II, the Sparrenburg was severely damaged during the air raid on Bielefeld on September 30, 1944, with only the tower remaining intact.

The castle complex has been partly preserved, partly rebuilt, or replaced by other buildings. Teaching events are held here, there's a small open-air theater, a playground, a café open on weekends, and a terrace with a magnificent view.

Nice spot to watch and relax with very nice paths around it.
