Archaeological excavations were carried out during the renovation work on Hörder Castle and the development of Lake Phoenix. These uncovered both industrial remains and historical finds that provided important insights into the history of the area. The excavations not only revealed traces of steel production, but also older layers that date back to the Middle Ages. These finds document the transformation of the place from a medieval castle site to an industrial center and finally to an urban recreational area.

The original castle was probably built in the 12th century near the confluence of the Hörderbach and Emscher rivers. An economically important grain mill also stood here.

The castle burned down twice, and only the keep survived. The castle was rebuilt around the keep.

Now, in front of the renovated castle, one can see the remains of the old castle's foundations and the Hörderbach stream.
