CYCLE TOUR WICKRATHER SCHLOSSTEICH The journey is the destination, and so 17 cyclists enjoyed a lovely day in Mönchengladbach's surroundings in what was at times a strong wind. The start was at 10:00 a.m. from the car park at Rheydt Castle. The route leads through the Volksgarten, the Neersbroicher Busch and the Hoppbruch to Haus Horst, from there past Steinhausen, Liedberg and Dyck Castle to Aldenhoven. Past the Jüchener Bach, we then went via Gierath and Jüchen to the edge of the open-cast lignite mine with a view into the big hole. Here we were showered heavily by the sprinklers that are supposed to bind the dust to protect the motorway. Shortly afterwards we reached the Wildenrath manor in Wanlo for a rest and refreshment. The route then went back along the Niers via Wickrath Castle, Beller Park and Zoppenbroich to Rheydt Castle.

Wickrath Castle From the first mention in 1068 until the end of the Holy Roman Empire in 1806, the Hochstaden, Broichhausen, Hompesch and Quadt families ruled over the castle or Wickrath Palace. The coats of arms of these families can be found on a fountain in the courtyard of the outer bailey. Not many descriptions or information about Wickrath Castle have been preserved. A painting by Wilhelm Thomas von Quadt from the mid-17th century shows a castle that is probably Wickrath Castle. It is located on an island with low bushes and consists of several buildings. The most striking part is a high, isolated tower with a very pointed spire. It was a moated castle, possibly built in the form of a motte in the 12th century and whose moats were fed by the Niers. There is no evidence above ground of the castle's former location.

Finally without scaffolding. Looks well renovated, at least the facade.
