Schloss Störmede

Schloss Störmede is a castle in Geseke that combines stone structures with architectural elements from different time periods. The rectangular main building displays traditional German fortification features and sits within a surrounding park that gives the property its overall character.

The castle originated in the Middle Ages and underwent expansions and modifications over centuries, with different building phases visible in its current appearance. The evolution from a medieval fortified structure to its present form shows how the demands of defense and architecture changed with each era.

The castle functions as a venue for regional exhibitions and concerts that connect visitors with local heritage. Its role as a cultural center has given the location a contemporary purpose that extends beyond its original military function.

The castle can be visited year-round during favorable weather, with the main season running from March to October when guided tours depart hourly. Group visits should be arranged in advance to ensure a guide is available for your tour.

The castle is now integrated into the Hotel Rittergut Störmede, allowing guests to stay overnight within the historical fortified complex. This integration into a hotel concept has given the location a new purpose while preserving its original structures.
