Schloss Overhagen, Renaissance castle in Lippstadt, Germany.

The castle stands on two islands enclosed by moats, featuring ornamental detailing with circles, semicircles, diamonds, and squares protruding from its masonry walls.

Built in 1619 by the von Schorlemer family, the castle underwent a Baroque expansion in 1735, incorporating modifications to both exterior and interior in Rococo style.

Since 1962, the castle operates as Gymnasium Schloss Overhagen, a private school where parents and students participate in maintaining the historical building.

Located at Schlossgraben 59556 in Lippstadt, North Rhine-Westphalia, the castle functions as an educational institution and does not offer public tours.

The castle's facade displays decorative elements incorporating geometric patterns and sculptural stones depicting various motifs in red bands against plaster walls.
