Haus Velmede is a former fortified estate that became a manor house, located southwest of the Weddinghofen district in Bergkamen, on the banks of the Spulbach stream. The building seen today, a brick structure with ashlar decoration under a gabled roof, dates from 1849 and replaced an earlier settlement thought to go back to around 1260. Of the moat that once surrounded the outer bailey only fragments remain, while the old farm buildings have been replaced by more modern ones.
