Vischering Castle was built in the 13th century by Gerhard von der Mark bishop of Münster, to contrast the second castle built by the Von Lüdinghausen family. It became the seat of the Droste zu Vischering family. Droste is the local title for noble hereditary administrators in the service of the bishops of Münster. The moat is constantly supplied by a side arm of the Stever River. The outer defensive courtyard contains the commercial and agricultural buildings. The main building is a three-story horseshoe-shaped structure with a heavy outer wall. Its internal courtyard is closed by the chapel and by a lower defense wall. A keep of the castle is missing, removed during the Renaissance restorations. A fire destroyed the castle in 1521. The reconstruction took place on the existing foundations. The windows and the addition of a large bay made the castle more livable but diminished its defensive character. However, the entire site retains the character of a moated castle from the feudal age. Air strike damage during World War II was minor. Vischering Castle houses the Münsterlandmuseum, an exhibition on knighthood for children, as well as a café-restaurant. It serves as a cultural center for Kreis Coesfeld. Visiting hours are provided in the first link below. You can always see the outside.
