The Good Stockhausen , also castle Stockhausen or house Stockhausen called is a moated castle on the southwestern edge of Lübbecker village of Stockhausen . Its beginnings are not exactly known, but go back at least to the 14th century. Since the facility is privately owned, it can only be viewed from the outside.

description

Mansion

The castle is of a moat surrounding and is made in a manor at the southeast corner of the area, a gate construction with itself followed Kutscherhaus and stable, as well as two barns and a pigeon tower. The complex includes lands that are around two hectares in size.

The two-storey manor house made of quarry stone with a square corner tower at the southeast corner has a concluding half-hipped roof and is divided into four axes by windows. A small outside staircase leads to the portal , above which a coat of arms stone with the year 1699 shows the year of construction. The building was erected at the end of the 17th century using the existing structure, as it also contains older components.

The gatehouse from 1672, to which a stone arched bridge leads, is a two-storey building made of quarry stone with a half-timbered upper floor made of bricks and a gable roof with roof turrets and weather vane . It is followed by the so-called coach house and a former horse stable, both of which are one-story.

It is believed that the estate used to have a baroque garden , of which nothing is preserved today. Only one avenue of chestnut trees to the west of the complex has been preserved, at the northern end of which there is a small cemetery with around 20 graves. This was the hereditary burial place of the von der Recke family and was probably created at the end of the 18th century.

history

Stockhausen estate around 1860

It is not yet known when the facility was built. Its beginnings go back at least to the 14th century, because at that time the castle was owned by the Kyllfois family before it came to the Knights of Westorp in 1411. In the first quarter of the 17th century, the heiress Anna Margaretha von Westorp married Dietrich von der Recke , whose family she sold to Hans Werner Schürmann in 1979.
