Rheda Castle and Castle Park

Highlight • Castle

The castle 🏰 is still inhabited by the princely family today. It is a popular venue - for example for the garden festival "Spring in the Park". In the Emswiesen the castle park goes into the Flora-Westfalica-Park, the former state garden show of 1988.

August 7, 2025,Bahnhof - Altstadt Rheda - Schloss - Altstadt Wiedenbrück- Bahnhof
A beautiful tour through greenery, with lots of water, half-timbered houses, and an idyllic setting. The climb up the castle tower (€5 entrance fee) was a bit outside my comfort zone. But I managed the first ladder up to the first wooden floor. After that, it would have been a case of continuing on loose boards and ladders. Surely good …

It was a fantastically beautiful tour.. from Rheda train station almost always along the Ems and through the Emsauen to Rheda Wiedenbrück.. not to forget the two historic old towns.. 👌👌

Beautiful round from Rheda, through the castle park, past thousands of water lilies 😍, always through green to Wiedenbrück where everyday people stood behind every corner, wonderful to look at, back to Rheda to listen to the live concert from Baker Street on Doctor Square with a beer ! Have a nice Sunday ☀️

It's nice that everyday people are back. Despite the vandalism, the Burckhard Kramer Foundation changed its mind and organized the exhibition at short notice in 2024.

What a day🤗

Lots of pictures, sorry😇

Actually, it should go to Hermann today ... but the weather was said so bad beforehand that we postponed the 30 km tour and are to Rheda-Wiedenbrück to the everyday people😍

A very good decision, we were thrilled by the 98 figures that are now distributed throughout the city center of Wiedenbrück!

And today, the next everyday people, again in Wiedenbrück. Wiedenbrück is a permanent exhibition, and this year the figures have been there for 20 years. Therefore, at some stations, the figures that were there 20 years ago are on display. Incredibly exciting.

And this time I arrived in time; I was able to see all the figures.

"Rheda-Wiedenbrück, a town of well-being and amazement" is the apt tourist motto of this Westphalian gem.

The two picturesque old towns of Rheda and Wiedenbrück are connected by the well-maintained Flora-Westfalica-Park, created for the State Garden Show in 1988, with Emsauen and lake, cycle paths and walking paths, beautiful bridges, great playgrounds and many secluded places to relax from a …

A lovely little stroll through Rheda on the way home.

A fantastic, spacious park, right next to the town center.

Beautiful half-timbered houses.

Delightful for a day trip. Would gladly visit again.
