The Stockhausen estate, also known as Stockhausen Castle or Stockhausen House, is a moated castle on the southwestern edge of the Lübbecke town of Stockhausen. Its beginnings are not exactly known, but go back at least to the 14th century. Since the facility is privately owned, it can only be viewed from the outside. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gut_Stockhausen_(L%C3%BCbbecke)

The Bustedt estate is a moated castle that was founded in 1415 by the knight Heinrich von Ledebur. However, he placed this on the land of the Herford women's monastery, which led to a feud that he lost. The castle, which was secured with several moats, passed to the House of Ravensberg just four years later and was managed by different families. When it lost its military importance, Gut Bustedt was converted into a moated castle. Today the facility is used by the community of Hiddenhausen as a biology center. Around the moated castle there are several animal enclosures for goats and poultry, ponds and even a herb and kitchen garden. The estate can also be visited from the inside on Sundays from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. This is when the aquarium enthusiasts meet and maintain several beautiful aquariums in the residential tower. Anyone who uses the front entrance can at least see it through the glazed door. The wooden door of the residential tower can be opened to allow a view. In between, Gut Bustedt can also be visited at other times.

Limberg Castle looks back on a long and eventful history. It was probably founded in Widukind's time and was owned by the Bishop of Minden 1000 years ago. Limberg Castle has only been officially documented since 1319 and was owned by the Counts of Ravensberg and was one of the four border castles in the Ravensberg region, of which the Sparrenburg in Bielefeld is probably the most famous. The count's house died out in 1346, but the county of Ravensberg remained for a long time under the heirs of the House of Jülich-Berg. The castle changed hands several times, and their names are often found in the region (von dem Bussche, Schloen, Gesmold or Ledebur). Of course, there were also some border disputes. The castle, which has since fallen into disrepair, was approved for demolition in 1695, so that the foundations can still be seen today. Only the keep was preserved and was actually used as a prison for some time. Today, it is the keep that is the most striking feature of the ruins of Limberg Castle. If you like, you can borrow a key from the tourist information office. Despite the fact that most of the castle has disappeared, they really make every effort to present the castle ruins in the best possible way. The grounds are not only extremely well maintained, but are also well signposted. The castle's eventful history alone is described on 4 information boards. There is also further information on the various parts of the building. 2 very interesting audio contributions can also be accessed via QR code! And all of this in a comfortable rest area! There are many castle ruins in this region, but for me, Limberg Castle is always one of the most beautiful due to its state of preservation and atmosphere! Just relax and take in the long history of the castle. PS: In the guest house you can see a model of the castle complex, showing how it is supposed to have looked in its full size.
