Haus Alst, Medieval Burgmannshof in Horstmar, Germany.
The Renaissance-style building of Haus Alst stands as a protected architectural monument in the district of Steinfurt, North Rhine-Westphalia, near Münster.
First documented in 1217, Haus Alst served as the residence of the Schorlemer-Alst family who provided military service to the bishop of Horstmar.
