Brandlecht manor was first mentioned in 1326 and was an independent manor district until 1929 . The facility is located in the village of Brandlecht (city of Nordhorn ). The estate was one of the knights' seats in the county of Bentheim that were eligible for parliament. Principal house with graft and enclosure, fountain and Catholic Marienkirche are under monument protection.
history
The Lords of Brandlecht built a moated castle that had two residential buildings on Oberplatz. They had received permission from the Counts of Bentheim to erect a wooden building there and to surround it with a 75 foot (approx. 22 m) wide moat. As early as 1360, the building was razed by the Münster diocese.
After the brick successor buildings had become dilapidated, the principal house was built in 1779 instead of the so-called “old house”, using old building materials.
The farm buildings on Unterplatz disappeared in 1857 at the latest when Clemens Count Droste zu Vischering Erbdroste had the Catholic Marienkirche built. A part of the southern moat was filled in so that the church could find its place next to the southern part of the three-wing complex running in north-south direction on Unterplatz. This part of the economic wing still exists; the other building projecting to the west was demolished.
On April 1, 1929, the manor district was incorporated into Brandlecht; on March 1, 1974, the community of Brandlecht was incorporated into Nordhorn.

Principal house
The principal house built in 1779 and the church built between 1857 and 1859 are located on historical ground, because a little over 675 years ago the Lords of Brandlecht settled here. The first mention of a moated castle there comes from the year 1326.
The principal house, along with the fountain, the graft and the enclosure, are under monument protection.
Catholic Marienkirche
The Marienkirche was built between 1857 and 1859 and is also a listed building.
