Dülmen

The Saint Viktor Church is the oldest church of Dülmen, founded in the 780s. The current church dates from the year 1938.

Not much of the city centre survived World War II, but buildings such as the Lüdinghauser Tor (town gate), Korenkenturm and Nonnenturm (watchtowers) survived.

The original medieval castle was replaced by a more comfortable and representative manor in the 1830s; only some parts have survived from the 17th century. The manor now houses an exclusive boarding school and is surrounded by a beautiful landscaped garden, whose core is closed to public (you can visit it from the outside though). The inner part may only be visited by appointment.

18th-century Baroque brick manor covered by vine foliage; beautiful Baroque garden with accurately trimmed boxwood hedges, flowerbeds and a water lily pond.

Former Korn distillery, transformed into residential homes. A restored copper still, various glass containers and old barrel brands in the entrance hall recall the building's heritage.

The grave and memorial of the 2004 beatified nun and mystic Anne Catherine Emmerick can be found in the Heilig-Kreuz-Kirche.

Interesting historic site, Baroque revival gate, several tomb steles, elaborate mausoleum of a rich family.

618-acre landscape park, designed in the 19th century and consisting of meadows, woodlots and ponds. Home to heath sheep, deer and various bird species. Old solitary trees, the forester's lodge and a picturesque wooden bridge are worth seeing.
