Castle Fürstenau was first built in the 14th century, but most buildings date from the 16th century. Parts of the castle are used as Town Hall.
This one had a restaurant in it, but it was closed due to 'you know what'.
It has a tower as well.
I think this used to be the prison. There was a headless body hanging from a window dressed in prison stripes.
We had to take a closer look at the cannon of course.
Man the cannon!
It might not be a really big castle, but I think it's a cool one.
I spotted some signs.
This one had a woman and child on it to indicate it's a walk path. In the Netherlands it used to be a man and a child before they changed it to unrecognizable stick figures. It's fun to see the difference in signs between different countries.
No fishing with Minnie Mouse ears and dogs need to be leashed.
The weather was lovely so we sat in the sun to eat and relax.
There was a heart with all kinds of locks on it.
They all had names of couples on it and dates. I think it was for couples who just got married in Town Hall.
Back at Diana's place we read and relaxed some more. And we spotted a squirrel!
In the evening Diana lit the fireplace. It was an awesome day.
