Schloss Dilborn, Heritage castle in Brüggen, Germany
Located on the banks of the Schwalm River, Schloss Dilborn features symmetrical architecture with distinct wings and a neo-Gothic chapel within its grounds.
Built in 1363 as a moated castle, the structure remained under the ownership of the Elmpt and Geloes families from 1583 to 1854.
From 1911 to 1931, the castle served as residence for artists Heinrich Nauen and Marie von Malachowski, prominent figures of Rhenish Expressionism.
The ground floor of Schloss Dilborn now hosts cultural events, with tickets available through local bookstores and a dedicated phone line at 02163-3409834.
The castle's name, Dilborn, derives from ancient terminology meaning 'spring in a depression,' reflecting its geographical position near water sources.
