Haus Coull

Haus Coull is an L-shaped manor house in Straelen surrounded by a double moat system with an adjoining forecourt and rectangular grounds. The layout includes the main residence and outbuildings arranged around a structured courtyard area.

The estate was first recorded in 1406 as a fief connected to St. Michael's Abbey in Siegburg. It passed through the hands of several noble families over the centuries, each leaving their mark on the buildings.

The building displays architectural layers from multiple centuries, visible in its mixed construction styles and materials. Visitors walking around the structure can spot how different eras left their mark on walls, roofs, and outbuildings.

The property sits about half a mile from Straelen's center and is visible from public paths near the road toward Wachtendonk. The building is privately owned, so visitors can only view it from the exterior.

An outbuilding in the forecourt area contains wall anchors dating to 1798, showing how craftspeople reinforced the structure. The same building has an unusual roof form with a half-hipped design that sets it apart from standard manor houses.
