History+

The origins of Bruch Castle date back to the 14th century, when it was constructed. From this early building phase, parts such as the entrance facade with its gatehouse, a five-story corner tower, and a round tower at the opposite end are still preserved. Originally, the castle was owned by the Lords of Bruch before it passed as a fief to the Lords of Daun. In 1539, the complex returned to the possession of Kurtrier.

Today, Bruch Castle is privately owned. Visitors can admire the exterior of the listed building.
