Properties:
Schloss Gevelinghausen, first mentioned in a document in 1299, has shaped the region’s history for centuries. In 1796, the castle came into the possession of Baron von Wendt-Papenhausen. The poet Annette von Droste-Hülshoff stayed at the estate as a guest in 1824 and 1831. In 1985, the property changed hands and has since been used as a conference hotel by the Administrative Occupational Safety and Health Association. The historic buildings may be viewed from the outside at any time. Access to the interior is primarily available upon request for events or as part of specific arrangements. The estate’s architecture reflects a variety of historical periods and its significance in the Sauerland region.
