Kolvenburg

The stone fortress sits at the edge of Billerbeck, surrounded by the rolling hills of Baumberge and traditional Münsterland landscapes.

The castle originated as a medieval complex owned by the Colve family in the 14th century and served as a residence for noble families until the 17th century.

The castle functions as the cultural center of Coesfeld district, presenting rotating exhibitions of contemporary art and hosting music performances throughout the year.

During renovations starting July 2023, the castle remains temporarily closed to visitors, with updates available through social media channels and newsletters.

The castle provides a setting for civil marriage ceremonies amid its historical walls, combining medieval architecture with modern community functions.
