Ehreshoven Castle

Engelskirchen, Germany, Germany

---

Ehreshoven Castle near Engelskirchen in Germany's Oberbergischer Kreis is a Baroque moated castle first documented in 1355, originally owned by Siegburg Abbey before passing to the Counts of Nesselrode who held it until 1920.

Remodeled in the late 16th century with a medieval chapel incorporated and further expanded in the late 17th with a three-winged manor and four-winged front house, it features an intact early 18th-century French garden overlooking the Agger River valley.

Since 1924 operated as a charitable foundation for canonesses by the Rhenish Knighthood per the last owner Countess Marie von Nesselrode's will, the privately owned site hosts events like weddings while remaining closed to regular public access.
