Redenhof
The Redenhof is a former noble court in the old town of Hameln . It is the last complex of its kind in Hameln and is one of the few aristocratic courts that have been preserved in their entirety within cities.
The Redenhof was created when Ernst von Reden acquired the so-called "Red Court" from Braun von Eddingerode in 1568 . Then he had a residential building built in the late Gothic style with elements of the early Renaissance . Since the Redenhof belongs to the Fideikommiss der von Reden , it has remained in the family's possession until today (2016).
The Redenhof, which is still inhabited today (2016), includes the historic house and a former farm building made of quarry stone masonry . The 3000 m² courtyard property is largely surrounded by an almost two meter high quarry stone wall. The Redenhof borders a preserved section of the historic city wall . In earlier centuries the courtyard was located on the south-eastern outskirts within the fortifications of Hameln .
