Castle Dillich, Medieval castle in Borken-Dillich, Germany.
The three-story rectangular castle features a polygonal stair tower on its eastern side and includes a single-story hall on the western section.
Originally constructed around 1361 as a replacement for an earlier water castle from 1335, the structure underwent major renovations between 1575 and 1591.
The von Dalwigk family maintained ownership of the castle from before 1355 until 1858, serving as landgraves and Hessian vassals throughout their tenure.
The castle grounds include a 2.5-hectare park enclosed by sandstone walls, with the entire property recognized as a protected cultural monument.
In 2017, Buddhist monks from Thailand purchased the castle, transforming its 35 rooms and 1,650 square meters into a residence and seminar center.
