Haus Graven

Haus Graven is a water castle with moats protecting its stone walls and multiple buildings on the fortified grounds. The complex displays traditional architectural elements from various periods and remains accessible to visitors.

The castle was built in the 17th century as a residential fortress for regional nobility and served defensive purposes for centuries. It eventually became legally protected as an architectural heritage monument.

A local association runs the site and hosts regular art exhibitions and concerts throughout the year. These events draw visitors interested in experiencing contemporary art and classical music within historic rooms.

The site welcomes visitors on weekends and holidays, and it is wise to check opening times before your visit. The location at Graf-von-Mirbach-Weg is straightforward to find.

In 2020, the city of Langenfeld acquired the grounds with support from North Rhine-Westphalia to bring new life to the site. Today it is developing into a center for environmental and climate protection activities.
