Schloss Lauersfort, Water castle in Moers-Kapellen, Germany.
The castle features a rectangular main building with a west wing addition, surrounded by landscaped gardens designed by Maximilian Friedrich Weyhe.
The oldest section, the outer bailey, dates to the 14th century when the Lords of Friemersheim received it as a fief from Werden Monastery.
The ground floor contains the Schinkelsaal, a room designed according to plans by influential Prussian architect Karl Friedrich Schinkel.
The castle operates under heritage protection laws and appears in the monument register of Moers under number 8 for preservation purposes.
The name Lauersfort evolved from Löwenfurt, referring to the red lion on golden background heraldry of the Lords of Friemersheim.
