The castle of the Counts of Hallermund was first mentioned around 1189, although they only owned a small dominion of 55km². They did not enjoy their castle for long, Ludolf and Wilbrand pledged it to the bishop of Hildesheim. Later it became the property of the Guelphs, was temporarily owned by the Count of Spiegelberg and was part of all sorts of disputes, feuds and robberies. It was probably finally demolished around 1435, which explains why there is really not a single small wall left here. Only depressions and funnels on the edge indicate the cellar and building.

The moated castle shell de, near Hanover, located in the valley between Deister and Süntel, was built between 1529 and 1548 as a four-winged complex. It is a typical example of an early Renaissance building in the Weser area. The outstanding art-historical value of the castle lies in the original structure of the 16th century. The moated castle and the courtyard buildings are listed buildings and have been extensively restored over the past thirty years. The entire facility and the associated agriculture have been family-owned for over 400 years. Source: https://schloss-huelsede.de/das-schloss/

The castle is private, but you can visit some parts of the courtyard and take some pictures. At the entrance you will find a nice information table.

The Heisterburg or Hoysburg auf dem Deister is a fortification that was built in the 10th to 11th centuries as a royal court near Feggendorf (district of Lauenau) in Lower Saxony. The Heisterburg on the Deister is one of the Franconian courts, which were initially considered to be Roman castles and only later turned out to be a royal court. The berm (a flat area between ramparts and ditches) was 2-2½ m wider at the Heisterburg than in Roman camps and forts, even if the defense (with ramparts, ditches, towers or gates) is reminiscent of that of a Limes fort. In addition, a rectangular defensive tower was found in the south-west corner of the courtyard, which jumped inward, but was not completely excavated.

With the explanation on the display board and the illustrations, you can understand the elevations in the area and get an impression of the size of the ramparts. Further information is available at Wikipedia https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heisterburg.

The castle is nice to look at, there is a coffee garden (if not closed due to Corona) and a game meat sale.

A castle is said to have stood here for a short time. The ascent is very steep and very slippery with a little moisture. We think the climb is not worth it as there is nothing to see at the top.
