House Venne
Nestled in an avenue of lime trees, the simple castle complex of Haus Venne with its symmetrically assigned outbuildings is situated in the most beautiful Münsterland park landscape. The private manor house completes the quartet of Drensteinfurt's moated castles and thus invites visitors on a worthwhile tour of discovery of the four Westphalian noble houses.
With the signature of renowned master builders
Haus Venne was first mentioned in documents as early as the 13th century. It then changed hands several times before being taken over by the von Ascheberg family in 1611. According to the plans of the architect Lambert Friedrich Corfey, a new Baroque building was constructed in 1716. The famous master builder Johann Conrad von Schlaun also contributed his expertise and designed the garden house in his unmistakably impressive Baroque architectural style.
Today, three of the outbuildings serve as farm buildings, and the fourth houses the castle chapel with lavish rococo furnishings.
