Haus Almerfeld

Haus Almerfeld is a stone manor house in Brilon built with traditional German architecture from earlier centuries, featuring several outbuildings across the grounds. The main structure displays solid craftsmanship, while the surrounding buildings point to its former role as a working farm.

The manor house arose as a residential seat for wealthy families in the region during a period when such country estates shaped the surrounding landscape. Like many similar buildings, it went through various phases of use and change over time, yet kept its essential features intact.

The manor served as the center of a working farm for many years and still shapes how this part of the Brilon countryside looks today. Its stone walls and surrounding grounds reflect how wealthy families lived and managed their properties here.

The building sits in the rural area of Brilon and is easy to spot from outside, though it remains in private hands and is not always open to visitors. The best way to experience it is to view the property from the surrounding public roads and paths.

The estate shows particularly clearly how German country properties of earlier times combined residence and farming under one working system. This practical arrangement let the family oversee and manage their fields directly from home.
