Schloss Oedenthal, Manor house in Lüdenscheid, Germany.

The castle stands on a promontory above the confluence of the Grebbecke and Linnepe rivers, with two wings of different heights flanking a central tower.

First recorded in 1160 as Odincdala, the original structure included a moated castle with a drawbridge until destruction by fire in 1865.

The Tudor-style entrance arch displays the von Holtzbrinck family crest, who owned the property for 200 years after acquiring it in 1725.

Access to Schloss Oedenthal is possible via a road leading from the B54 highway toward Heerwiese and Brockhauser Ebene.

The Oedenthaler water mill, operating with two water wheels until the 1980s, remains beneath the castle as a historical structure.
