First mentioned in 1230 as the bailiwick of Paffendorf, this Renaissance-style moated castle is completely surrounded by water. Today, a brasserie invites visitors to enjoy coffee, cakes, and light meals. These can be savored either in the stylish interior or in the castle courtyard overlooking the park. The courtyard also serves as a venue for concerts and Christmas markets. The 7.5-hectare castle park delights visitors with its expansive water features, ancient sequoias and ginkgo trees, a stone pavilion, and numerous seating areas that invite relaxation.

The Laufenburg was built in the 12th century by the Dukes of Limburg. Since the 17th century it has only existed as a ruin. In 1895 the battlements of the round corner towers were renewed. The current restaurant is closed on Mondays.

In the 16th century, Count Werner von Salm-Reifferscheid had the castle rebuilt in the Renaissance style. In 1839, the Rhenish Knighthood acquired the property and used it as a knights' academy. Following extensive restoration in the 1980s, the most recent renovation took place in 2008. The glass-roofed arcaded courtyard in the style of the Italian Early Renaissance is particularly noteworthy. Today, the elegant rooms serve as a venue for cultural events, conferences, and private celebrations. The moated castle is especially popular as a romantic wedding location.

The origins of Bedburg Castle probably go back to the construction of a moth, but no parts of this have survived. It is one of the earliest aristocratic residences in Erft. The oldest components, from the 12th century, are in the basement. At this time we know a Ludolphus de Bethbure. In the 13th century, the lords of Heinsberg could have owned the castle as a fief before it passed to the lords of Reifferscheid, a Fredericus de Bedbure. The castle is a "castle type", consisting of three wings and two round and two square towers. The castle or chateau was repeatedly damaged and rebuilt. The Counts of Neuenahr owned the castle from 1403. In 1588 Count Werner von Reifferscheid was enfeoffed with the property and remained in the hands of the von Salm-Reifferscheid family until 1798. After the Peace of Lunéville in 1801, the château officially fell to the French state and was temporarily used as a residence for veterans of the French army. After being vacant for a short time and now in Prussian ownership, it was converted into a hospital for the eye patients in the Brauweiler penal institution. https://www.geschichtsverein-bedburg.de/permanent/BedburgSchloss.html

The castle is a great setting for beautiful photos

A real highlight, definitely worth cycling there.

Very beautiful moated castle with a nice park. You can also eat smaller meals and cakes in the brasserie in the inner courtyard.

In 1830 the property came to Clemens August Waldbott von Bassenheim-Bornheim through marriage. At the end of the 19th century the family moved to Hungary, so that in 1894 a relative of the owner, Clemens Freiherr von Loë-Longenburg, bought the property and passed it on to his nephew Walter Freiherr von Loë. In 1976, the son Clemens Freiherr von Loë rented the facility to the Bergerhausen Psychotherapeutic Institute headed by Hans-Werner Gessmann. The institute developed it into a therapeutic center by 1989. After the sudden death of Walter Freiherr von Loë and his son Clemens, the community of heirs sold the castle complex to Josef and Willy Stollenwerk, the previous leaseholders of the courtyard lands. They renovated the buildings in 1984.
