Namedy Castle, Baroque castle in Andernach, Germany.

Namedy Castle is a former moated castle on the left bank of the Rhine north of Namedy. Its white-plastered central block has three rows of rectangular windows and a grey slate roof; a square bay window projects on the left, a round tower with a dark domed roof stands on the right, and a half-timbered section bears the date 1395.

The Husmann family of Andernach built the late Gothic moated castle in the 14th century, incorporating the Niederhof noble court. In 1700 Johann Arnold von Solemacher bought it for 7,500 Reichstaler and converted it into a Baroque palace. Prince Karl Anton of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen purchased it in 1909 and gave it its present appearance, adding a hall of mirrors flanked by two corner towers.

Since 1988 the castle has run as a cultural centre, opened by Godehard Prince of Hohenzollern; after his death in 2001 his widow Princess Heide of Hohenzollern continued the programme. Concerts, theatrical performances and art exhibitions are held, including the Kultursommer Rheinland-Pfalz summer of culture. The castle and park can also be hired for private celebrations and professional events.

The castle sits on Schlossstrasse in Andernach and is accessible via the Eurovelo 15 cycling path that runs nearby. Guided tours are offered and the grounds can be rented for private events.

The castle's hall of mirrors functioned as a military hospital during World War I under the direction of Princess Joséphine Caroline of Belgium. This transformation shows how the building played a role during a critical historical moment.
