Information
Wewelsburg Castle was built between 1603 and1609 in Weser Renaissance style as a supplementary residence for the Prince Bishops of Paderborn. The triangular castle, which is located in the village of Wewelsburg (Büren) in the district of Paderborn, stands high on a rock overlooking the Alme Valley.
The triangular castle accommodates a youth hostel and Wewelsburg District Museum, which contains the Historical Museum of the Prince Bishopric of Paderborn. The Historical Museum presents the history of Paderborn Land from the time of the first settlement to secularisation in 1802.
Wewelsburg District Museum also includes the contemporary history exhibition ‘Wewelsburg 1933–1945 Cult and Terror Centre of the SS ‘ as well as the exhibition ‘Germans in Eastern Central Europe – Flight-Expulsion-Integration’. Both exhibitions are located in the former guardhouse in the castle forecourt. Wewelsburg District Museum is supported by the District of Paderborn.
