Westfalen Castle 10202 in Kalkar-Appeldorn invites you to take an architectural journey through time.
The first known origins of this Castle date back to the 12 th century. Built on three islands in an arm of the Rhine, the knight's castle is one of the biggest in the Lower Rhine .
The foundations of the castle stem from the 12 th century and the modern glass design makes the recently erected frontage look very impressive.
This former knight's castle is embedded in the idyllic Lower Rhine park landscape along with Lake Boetzelar .
Three elegant double bedrooms and two romantic suites in the main part of the castle invite you to take a lavish and restful break in a fairytale-like tower. Four additional exquisite rooms and a suite are situated in the so-called “front castle building”.
