The water castle is one of the biggest and most beautiful noble's residences in Münsterland. The museum is worth seeing, the castle is surrounded by a park.
The old town hall was built from 1618-24 in the style of the Dutch Renaissance. There is an ice cream parlour on the ground floor with outdoor catering under the town hall arcades. A market takes place several days a week in the square.
Bocholt Textile Factory Museum
The museum shows the history of textile production in Münsterland. All descriptions are in German and Dutch only, but the stuff can give a guided tour in English. Almost all of the historical, steam-powered machines are operational, so you can see the process of weaving on different generations of weaving machines in a large weaving hall. In another restored factory, just a block away (not open during winter), is a spinning mill.
