Great Restaurant with beautiful buildings and garden

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.

Lippspringe Castle, first mentioned in 1312, served the Paderborn Cathedral Chapter as an alternative residence and protection of their property. It experienced several sieges and destruction over the centuries, including by Count Otto von Waldeck in 1350 and almost complete destruction in 1414. It was damaged again in the Thirty Years' War. After the Seven Years' War it fell into ruins. The outer bailey was rebuilt in the 1760s, and after secularization in 1803 the ruins became a Prussian state domain.

Old castle complex in the middle of the park

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

The baroque estate with a manor house is surrounded by a quarry stone wall and was used by the Mallinckrodt family. The complex includes a small garden and a pavilion. The stately half-timbered building on a solid base was built from 1668 to 1684 on the foundations of a previous building. It is covered with a half-hipped roof. In 1878 it was extended to the south across the moats. In the same year, the double-sided flight of steps was laid out. Inside, the building has been redesigned several times for educational purposes. The baroque figure of Mary with child on the south-east facade is remarkable. For a long time, the castle served as an economic women's school and had been affiliated with the Reifenstein Association since 1912. The owner was the Society for Agricultural Women's Education GmbH in Nordborchen. From 1942 it was run as the provincial rural women's school in Nordborchen, from 1970 as the Mallinckrodthof women's educational institution, later: Mallinckrodthof vocational college, occupational field of nutrition and home economics. The building now houses a wedding room for the Borchen registry office and the "Genusswerkstatt" café and restaurant. Furthermore, the adult education center, the shopping cart, the consortium and Borchen associations use some of the rooms.

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.

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.
