In the 16th century, Count Werner von Salm-Reifferscheid had the castle rebuilt in the Renaissance style. In 1839, the Rhenish Knighthood acquired the property and used it as a knights' academy. Following extensive restoration in the 1980s, the most recent renovation took place in 2008. The glass-roofed arcaded courtyard in the style of the Italian Early Renaissance is particularly noteworthy. Today, the elegant rooms serve as a venue for cultural events, conferences, and private celebrations. The moated castle is especially popular as a romantic wedding location.

Alt-Kaster Old Town

Highlight • Historical Site

A beautiful place with many places to stop for refreshments. The pumps are also still in operation. There is a very nice playground on the outskirts for the children, and chestnut trees can be gathered in bulk during the chestnut season. The Werewolf hiking trail also leads through this place. Just hike and let yourself be told what happened here a long time ago. It really happened - whether it was a werewolf is in the room. However, there is a lot to be said for it - but decides for yourself. An exciting story in the surroundings of this place.

Werewolf Hiking Trail — Bedburg

Highlight • Trail

Peter Stump (* 1525; † October 31, 1589 in Bedburg), or Peter Stubbe, also known as Stubbe- or Stübbe-Peter, was accused in the best-known werewolf trial that took place in German-speaking countries at the time.[1] He was accused in Epprath and Bedburg in the Rhineland, during a period of 25 years, of having committed at least 16 murders in the guise of a werewolf. He was also accused of rape, cannibalism and incest, as well as magic and living with a "devil". Found guilty on October 28, 1589, he was executed by wheeling and beheading a few days later. His body was then cremated.
