Haus Martfeld, Renaissance manor house museum in Schwelm, Germany

The north wing, central tract, and south wing of Haus Martfeld form a three-sided complex with a rectangular gate tower constructed in 1627.

Originally built as a water castle in the 14th century, the Wandhoff knights received Haus Martfeld in 1431 from Count Adolf IV of Mark.

The museum exhibits showcase regional historical collections across multiple floors, including valuable books from the 16th to mid-19th centuries.

Visitors can explore permanent exhibitions in the central tract and round tower, while temporary art displays rotate through the south wing foyer.

The property contains a granary from 1583 and a neo-Gothic chapel designed by Cologne architect Vincenz Statz in 1860.
