Burg Anholt, Water castle in Isselburg, Germany
Anholt Castle stands on an island encircled by a water-filled moat, with gardens extending across 35 hectares of landscaped grounds and ponds.
The castle's origins trace back to the 12th century, and in 1641 the property came under the ownership of the Princes of Salm family.
The museum within the castle displays 700 paintings, including works by Cranach, Murillo, and Rembrandt, plus porcelain collections from the 17th century.
Visitors can access the castle museum through guided tours, with materials provided in English, and stay overnight in the 31-room Parkhotel.
The grounds feature a miniature version of Switzerland's Vierwaldstättersee lake, created in the late 19th century by Prince Nikolaus Leopold II.
