an old watchtower on the Salt Road

A nice place to linger along the route.

It's not a lookout tower, but I find it interesting. You find it next to the road near Waldemeine. Because there are a lot of trees and bushes around the tower, it's not easy to see it. The path is also a bit overgrown. It's not that easy to get there by bike. You can't go up the tower because there's no door.

Reineberg Castle, also called Reineburg, is a former hilltop castle on the 275.9 meter high Reineberg in the Wiehengebirge in the southern urban area of Lübbecke, in the so-called Reineberger Hagen. The beginnings of the Reineberg state castle are lost in legend. According to the bishop's chronicles of the city of Minden, the castle was founded by Bishop Konrad I of Rüdenberg (1209–1237). Osnabrück sources, however, report that the Osnabrück bishop Adolf von Tecklenburg (1216–1224) was a co-builder. Reinberg Castle was first mentioned in a document in 1221. In 1951 an official survey of the still visible castle remains took place. The local historian Friedrich Langewiesche from Bünde discovered that there were once five outer castles in front of the Reineburg. Source: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burg_Reineberg

The round tower, built from rubble stones, has a high entrance, now walled up, and several loopholes. The remaining tower ruins are listed as historical monuments. The exact age is unknown. It was probably built in the second half of the 15th century as a watchtower for the Salzufler Landwehr. With the help of light and smoke signals, the city could be warned early about approaching enemies. Probably in 1632, during the Thirty Years' War, the tower was destroyed in an attack and has remained in ruins since then.

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.
