Wasserburg Haus Welbergen stands in Ochtrup (Kreis Steinfurt), in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. The building is a listed Baudenkmal. Recorded dating: 13th century. Adult admission costs 4 EUR. Its opening hours and prices were verified at the source on October 19, 2026.
The Wasserburg Haus Welbergen stands amid broad moats fed by the Gauxbach, near Ochtrup in the Kreis Steinfurt. First documented in the 13th century, it combines a brick manor house with stepped gables, an irregular outer bailey and farm buildings added between the 16th and 19th centuries. Visitors cross a sandstone bridge from 1755, marked by a statue of St John of Nepomuk, before reaching the former drawbridge leading to the main house built between 1560 and 1570. The surrounding park and woodland paths, as well as the inner courtyard, remain open to walkers throughout the year.
