Gut von Hammerstein, Renaissance château in Apelern, Germany
Gut von Hammerstein is a castle with a single-winged structure stretching east to west, featuring four stories topped by a gabled roof. A polygonal spiral staircase tower at the front is a prominent architectural element.
The estate was first documented in 1055, though it received its present form during construction in 1590. It became the property of Baron Friderich Christoph von Hammerstein-Gesmold in 1673.
The interior features Gothic details with columned gateways and decorated fireplaces showing classical and Northern European artistic influences. These design choices define the character of the rooms throughout.
The estate serves as a venue for weddings, corporate events, and private celebrations throughout the year. Contact ahead to confirm availability and arrange your visit.
The grounds feature a linden tree alley planted in 1918 that extends roughly 150 meters. Around 5,400 perennial plants throughout the garden create floral displays in every season.
