Wonderful place to visit...Beautiful castle and amazing little village town with lots of small shops...
Very nice place for a day trip. Take a short stroll around the pretty little park! There is a duck pond and a small playground for kids and lots of beergarten and restaurants nearby as well.
This is a great place to visit if you are near the town. The natural history museum inside is quite good and is focused on the local area. The town itself is wonderful with a wide choice of restaurants and smaller eateries with a good selection a very short walk from the castle. A point worth mentioning is that you can hire cycles from within the castle grounds to explore the local area on great cycle routes.
Brüggen Castle (German: Burg Brüggen) is a water castle in the southeastern part of the Lower Rhine municipality of Brüggen in North Rhine-Westphalia. It was the most important castle in the north of the Duchy of Jülich. The castle was built by the Count of Kessel in the 13th century to guard a ford over the River Schwalm. In the early 14th century it went into the possession of the dukes of Jülich, who had the existing building replaced by a quadrangular castle made from brick. After the occupation of Brüggen in 1794 by Napoleonic troops it was confiscated and resold by the French government to a private individual at the beginning of the 19th century. Today part of the castle houses a hunting and natural history museum
