Castles and Horses !
Ever wanted to see a castle with a moat, well here they are!
The moated castles are the "pearls of the Münsterland Region". The moats that are named ´Gräften´ here surround the castles an offer a barrier of resistance against the invading forces.
There were no mountains or cliffs here that the knights could build these wonderful castles hence they lay on flat ground surrounded by water or walls and accessible only by bridge.
