Moyland Castle

The castle features four towers surrounding a central keep, constructed with brick walls and decorated with Tudor-style architectural elements throughout the structure.

Initially documented in 1307 as a fortified farm, the castle underwent transformations from Gothic to Baroque styles before achieving its current neo-Gothic form in the 19th century.

The castle houses the world's largest collection of Joseph Beuys artworks, containing approximately 5000 pieces across various artistic mediums and styles.

The museum complex includes exhibition spaces, a research library, administrative offices, and a café situated within the renovated farm buildings near the main structure.

Two lions, a wolf commemorating Voltaire's visit, and a pug symbolizing Winston Churchill adorn the main staircase railing of the castle.
