Haus Laer

Haus Laer is a manor house in Bochum that functions as both lodging and an event venue. The building contains guest rooms and multiple halls that can be arranged for different types of gatherings.

The manor was built in 1724 as a country residence reflecting early 18th-century design. A major renovation in 2011 transformed it into a hotel while preserving its original character and layout.

The name traces back to a family long connected to this land, reflecting ties that shaped the local area over centuries. Today the building serves as a gathering place where guests experience rooms that tell stories of the region's past.

The property sits at some distance from downtown Bochum, offering a quieter setting away from the city. Advance planning is wise since reception hours are limited and late arrivals need to be arranged ahead of time.

The manor preserves furniture and details from the 18th century that give guests a sense of how people lived in that era. This original character was kept during the modern renovation, creating a blend of old and new that visitors can experience firsthand.
