Haus Heyde, Castle ruins in Unna, Germany

The remains of Haus Heyde include sections of the moat system that once surrounded this medieval fortified residence in Unna-Uelzen.

First documented in 1343, Haus Heyde served as residence for nine noble families, including the von Sprenge and von Bodelschwingh families until 1927.

The local church in Unna maintains tombstones of noble families who lived at Haus Heyde, preserving their historical connection to the region.

The ruins are located at coordinates 51.565833° latitude and 7.723056° longitude, within a nature reserve established in December 1989.

A former air raid shelter on the grounds now functions as a sanctuary for eight different bat species since its conversion in 1996.
