Schloss Hohenlimburg

Schloss Hohenlimburg is the only medieval hilltop castle in Westphalia that remains largely in its original condition – a true treasure for anyone wanting to experience history up close.

From the castle, you can enjoy an impressive panoramic view of the Lennetal Valley, enriching your visit with a picturesque backdrop.

A special highlight is the “Black Hand”, a mummified medieval hand surrounded by an exciting legend, displayed as part of an exhibition.

The castle grounds, including the outdoor area, ramparts, castle garden, and inner courtyard, are open daily and invite exploration.

Monthly night watchman tours bring history to life in a lively and engaging way, guided by a host in traditional costume – a special experience for both young and old.

Especially romantic: weddings are held here in a historic setting – free ceremonies in the courtyard or official weddings in the princely hall create unforgettable moments.

For small family celebrations or quiet occasions, historically styled rooms like the Red Salon can be rented, adding a unique charm to any event.

During the Christmas season, the romantic Christmas market welcomes families for a festive stroll and enjoyment. 🎄
