Rittersitz Groß-Winkelhausen
Rittersitz Groß-Winkelhausen, Water castle in Angermund district, Düsseldorf, Germany.
The Rittersitz Groß-Winkelhausen stands along the Angerbach river, featuring double moats and remaining sections of the outer bailey and main gate.
First documented in the 12th century, the castle belonged to Johann de Zeppenheim in 1271, who used a pitchfork as his identifying seal.
The medieval structure evolved from a defensive fortress to a noble residence, reflecting the architectural changes in North Rhine-Westphalia through centuries.
The estate, managed by the Sonnen family since 1909, includes the 18th-century Hubertuskapelle chapel displaying historical coats of arms.
The castle held rare rights to keep wild horses in the forest between Duisburg and Düsseldorf, a privilege shared with the Duke of Berg.
