Beautiful castle on the side of the road. Nearby there is still a watermill and a monument to those killed in the wars.

We passed Gartrop Castle more or less by chance. You should put in the swing.

The moated castle Westerholt is picturesquely situated between the historic center of Westerholt and a golf course. The Westerholt Forest and the Resting Place Nature can also be reached on foot.

Every year the Land Partie takes place on the grounds of Lembeck Castle. At five, the castle immerses itself in a world of garden, living and fashion. The castle complex does not open again until Easter. Admission €4.50 for adults. Children from 3 years €3.

Herten Castle is a moated castle on the western edge of downtown Herten in the Recklinghausen district. It lies in the middle of an old English landscape garden and was first mentioned in 1376.

The main entrance is on Wulfener Straße. An imposing building that is privately owned. The entrance fees allow it to be maintained and kept in good condition.

On a sunny stroll through the narrow streets, old times seem to come back to life. Inscriptions on beams remind us of the fear of God, conflagrations and a sundial tells the time even without a battery. History... The name Westerholt comes from the term "Holz im Westen", in the west of Recklinghausen. The term "Holz" stands for "forest". The Reichshof gave these lands to a loyal vassal. The "freedom" grew around the old church of St. Martinus, which was first mentioned in 1310 The almost completely preserved half-timbered houses - 64 in number - from the early 17th century, together with the old parish church, the city gate and the castle complex, today form a "historic old town", which is also called the Westphalian Rothenburg. The first documented mention of Westerholt was in 1047 in the "Urbare", a property register of the Werden monastery. The Lords of Westerholt were mentioned in documents as early as 1193. They are one of the most important noble families in Vest Recklinghausen. The Imperial Counts' family belonged to the so-called high nobility. Westerholt is an idyll in the Ruhr area, where time seems to stand still, and is therefore an attraction for tourists and residents of the region."

The adjacent old village with its around 60 well-preserved half-timbered houses is one of the special cultural and historical monuments, just like Westerholt Castle. Precious oil paintings, stucco ceilings, old engravings and a romantic inner courtyard still remind us of the splendor and atmosphere of centuries past. Today, Westerholt Castle houses a restaurant, a hotel and an 18-hole golf course extends around the property."
