It has a long history, having been first documented in 893. Remarkable: The building fabric comes from the tuff stones that the Romans once used to build aqueducts to supply the city of Cologne. It was initially owned by the Imperial Monastery of Prüm. Afterwards, Münchhausen Castle belonged to the Counts of Are-Hochstaden, and then to the Electorate of Cologne. For a long time, the castle housed a customs post that monitored the coronation route from Frankfurt am Main to Aachen, but it was also used as a stronghold for a time.
