Schloss Amelunxen, Renaissance castle in Beverungen, Germany
The stone castle features two floors with eight axes, constructed on an elevated basement and topped with a steep hipped roof.
Brothers Ludolf and Gert von Amelunxen constructed the castle in 1554, marking their presence with their family coat of arms at the entrance.
The building displays early Weser Renaissance architecture with two sandstone entrances, reflecting the regional noble construction methods of North Rhine-Westphalia.
The castle remains under private ownership by the Amelunxen family, making interior access restricted to the general public.
The castle contains two separate entrances with massive doors, an unusual feature that originated from the initial design as two separate households.
