Haus Goldschmieding, Manor estate in Castrop-Rauxel, Germany

The white-plastered brick mansion features a square layout with a round corner tower and a tile-covered mansard roof at its northeast edge.

Initially documented in 1275 as a fortified border post of the archiepiscopal Recklinghausen against the Counts of Mark, the estate included defensive structures and moats.

The grand hall contains a Renaissance fireplace made of Baumberger sandstone, measuring 3.50 × 4.15 meters, decorated with allegorical reliefs and family crests.

The mansion now operates as a restaurant with a modern extension on its east side, set within expansive grounds featuring numerous modern sculptures.

William Thomas Mulvany established a natural obstacle horse racing track near the estate in 1872, which remained active until 1970.
