From Water Castle to Palace+
The origin of today's palace lies in an old moated castle of the Counts of Delmenhorst, which was first mentioned in 1360. The palace was built between 1741 and 1744 on the foundations of the castle. It is surrounded by the former moat and, after extensive restoration, now serves as the seat of the Samtgemeinde administration.
