To make a day of it
Haus Brock stands in Münster (Münster), in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. The building is a listed Baudenkmal. No visits are on record for this building.
Haus Brock is a former moated farmstead in Roxel, on the western outskirts of Münster. The estate dates back to the 17th century, when Johann von Stevening and his wife Maria von Bischopinck had it rebuilt into a fortified manor during the Thirty Years' War. Only a corner pavilion remains of the original manor house, but the long gatehouse, built in 1623 in the Westphalian Renaissance style, still stands on its original site. Visitors can see stepped gables typical of Münster, the allied coat of arms of the two founding families above the archway, and traces of the former drawbridge.
